Love checking airliners.net for the ones on the ground - don't know if y'all have seen these two:

Also, the Harbin Z-6, an obscenely ugly helicopter, even as those go.

Excellent!!! That's the best pic I've seen of the plane yet! Even the aircraft number is discernable. If only there were a way to cross reference the aircraft number with the Bureau Number. I've yet to find any Naval records that even allude to such a thing. If only there was enough outer wing intact to determine whether it's a -4 or an otherwise extinct -4B.

I was trying to do that same thing. No Joy.
