I was searching the NJ Department of Agriculture Photo archive and ran across shots of old spraying operations:

B-18:

B-18:

Ford Trimotor:

All three were apparently taken on June 14, 1956. The B-18 is near Greenwood Lake and the Tirmotor is at Highpoint. They are spraying for gypsy moths.

I thought the forum might find them interesting.

Regards,

Art S.

Great pics..thanks for posting! A quick bit of Googling shows that the B-18 is the one now preserved at Pima. Any idea of the identity of the Tin Goose?

If that's the case then here is what she looked like a couple of years ago. Pima have done a great job and I think it is magnificently displayed.
