Photo Comment

In this photo this Harpoon is still fitted out as an agricultural sprayer, with spray bars on the wings, but those wouldn't last much longer. A few months later it was sold to Dave Hansen (Warbird Aircraft Sales) and restored to flying condition in US Navy markings as the "Attu Warrior". It was flown to its new home in Heber City, UT on 9 Oct 2007. The aircraft was still proudly flying by August 2015, but was withdrawn from use shortly thereafter, when Dave Hansen was diagnosed with cancer. He passed away in January 2018.
