Definately the AJ Savage at P-cola. Here's a shot I snapped in '05. Isn't she the only survivor?

Steve clears the pot. Remember, where is as important as 'what' (which took about 4 minutes from posting!)

Mightyauster: "Half a kill, old boy, half a kill." :lol:

I also understand it's the only survivor, unless someone knows different?

Only one survives.
There was a fuselage with now wings in Philly back in the 1970's but it is believed to have been scrapped.

Well, ya could've kept quiet and we'd all still think you woz a genius. Now ya dun it. ;)

But seriously, it's great when a quiz causes a bit of discussion. I didn't realise it was a sole survivor.

A most interesting aircraft. Almost certainly the first trimotor designed to operate from carriers.
