I found some small album photos and thought they might be of interest. These were taken at NAS Sunnyvale (which later became NAS Moffett Field) in June 1932 and show a day when the public was allowed in to see the dirigible. For those of us that know Moffett Field it will be a shock to see nothing but a field of dry grass and weeds.

The only XC-12 ever built. Built by the Capelis Safety Airplane Company, it was registered as NX12762 on 12 Jan 1933, and first flew in the same year. It failed to attract commercial interest, and following a minor accident on 15 Apr 1938 the aircraft was permanently grounded, its registration cancelled in Aug 1938. It was acquired by RKO Studios and its unusual cockpit design was modified to look more like a DC-3. The aircraft was then used as a prop in many movies, most notably in Five Came Back (1939) and The Flying Tigers (1942). It was eventually scrapped circa 1950.

In 2003, the US Forest Service acquired twenty-five ex-military Bell AH-1 Cobras. These two were made flyable and outfitted with infrared and low light sensors to form the Firewatch Cobra program. The other helicopters remained in storage, providing parts on demand. N109Z is former US Army AH-1F 69-16422. N107Z in behind was formerly AH-1S 83-24194. The last Firewatch Cobra flight was on October 16, 2021, being replaced by newer technology equipment.

Listed in many online databases as being registered to Friedkin Enterprises at this time, which can be explained by the close association of the Friedkin family with Pacific Southwest Airlines. Kenny Friedkin founded the airline in 1949, together with his wife Jean, who became a director and vice-president of the company. Their son, Tom Friedkin, was a full-time pilot for the airline.
