'In McClelland Barclay experimental camouflage design No 5.' Artist McClelland Barclay joined the Naval Reserve in 1938 and designed several dazzle camouflage schemes. They were found to be ineffective. The source is sure that this is BuNo 1352 of squadron VB-2. In the background is SB2U-2 BuNo 0748 of the same unit. Photo from: Naval History and Heritage Command

Boss bird of VS-2 at NAS Quonset Point, which is still under construction. The OS2U was designed to be embarked on warships but, as the 'Neutrality Patrol Star' fuselage roundel indicates, VS-2 was tasked with coastal patrols with its complement of six aircraft, perhaps not all Kingfishers.

Photo taken well before the 12 July 1941 dedication of NAS Quonset Point. The new Building 2 was known as the Neutrality Patrol Hangar. The Kingfisher was used for 'inner patrol', up to 50 miles offshore. US military aircraft did not traditionally wear fuselage roundels. The 'Neutrality Patrol Star' was added from March 1940 on naval aircraft patrolling the USA's Atlantic and Caribbean coastlines. Though the OS2U-2 aircraft are new, the roundel's placement looks like an improvisation. The biplane is a Grumman JF Duck with inter-aileron struts. Photo from: Library of Congress

The French navy received 40 V-156F dive-bombers in 1939. They suffered heavy losses during operations against the German army in May 1940. One squadron saw action against the Italians in June. Following the fall of France a follow-on order for 50 aircraft was taken over by Britain. Modified to V-156B-1 Chesapeake I standard, they were judged underpowered and used for second-line duties. It is reported that AL936 was written off while serving with No 811 Sqn which only operated the 'Cheesecake' for a few months in 1941. A Douglas Boston is also seen. Photo from: Flight

Taxiing past the Pinwheel helicopter (see photo 678360) at Van Nuys. This airport was used by the USAF until 1990. The old Mitchell was one of a 1000-aircraft batch from fiscal year 1944. The tail number system requires the first digit of the full serial to be omitted. When in 1954 someone observed that 1940s and 1950s planes with the same tail numbers were in active service, this was curiously addressed not by simply adding the 'decade digit', but by introding a 0 (not O) prefix for older aircraft. See the article in our AirHistory Magazine section. Photo by: Ralph Crane / Life

The photographer framed the Pinwheel helicopter (see photo 678360) with this S-51 of the US Forest Service. Other shots show the reg clearly as N155Z but it's not listed by the FAA or anywhere else. From 1960 N155Z was worn by a C-46 Commando that the FAA has also forgotten about. Photo by: Ralph Crane / Life

Half man, half helicopter. This 'strap-on helicopter' was powered by rocket motors mounted at the rotor tips. The tail rotor was for steering. Tested by the US Navy against the Hiller ROE and Gyrodyne RON but RH-1 does not seem to be a naval designation and nor is a serial known. Photo by: Ralph Crane / Life
