The very first Convairliner, first flown as NX90849 from Lindbergh Field in San Diego on March 16th 1947. Subsequently registered to various corporate owners as N24501, N112G, N192L and N195L and finally N240BN in 1976. Notably, in 1950 as N24501. the aircraft was converted to a Convair 240-21 with two Allison 501 turboprops and became the first turboprop airliner to fly in the USA. Later converted back to piston power, and despite surely being an airframe worthy of preservation, the aircraft was sadly scrapped after several years of storage at Opa Locka.

After having spent about 25 years on outdoor display in slowly deteriorating condition, this Convair was moved indoors for restoration in May 2021. The result of this restoration can be seen in this photo. The right outer wing and nosegear doors were present in a nearby hangar and still had to be attached. Click on the registration or c/n to see the timeline for this aircraft. Note that during the restoration the aircraft's name was removed from the nose.

Three of the stored Air Tahoma Convairs at LCK seen here, N585P, one unknown wearing no registration, and N582P. Sadly, this is the only good photo I was ever able to get of these; they were broken up and removed sometime in October of 2021.

The only full view I was able to get of any of these birds. Broken up sometime in October of 2021. N585P had a long service life, the most notable part for me being her time with Lake Central Airlines from February 1961 to July 1968.

One of the last remnants of the World Air Museum at Mercer was this T-29B, derelict with her tail off when I saw her. On the civil registry as N1178Q, but not wearing it so far as I could tell. Broken up sometime in 2012.
