It was squeezed into a corner, I'll send you a scan in a minute. PS. I think it has since been removed from that location.

P2V-5 In New Mexico

Sun Feb 11, 2007 8:19 pm

Scott,
On the subject of Neptunes, do you or any of the other WIXers have a photo of the P2V-5 under restoration at Neptune Inc.'s New Mexico facility? This is one of the original -5s that was never tanked. It has the bomb bay doors and much of it's original equipment still intact, or so I'm told. The tail and nose turret have been re-installed but I'm not sure the project is still active. Thanks, Albert
