This one sold as ferryable, was told that it would have made for a interesting flight if it did indeed happen.

This is a Great Photograph :drink3:

I don't believe the duster was ferried out but it is under restoration. It also at one time was listed forsale.


The yellow and white is now in the UK registered as G-ONAF and has been listed for sale for quite a while. I was helping someone from Spain go through a pre buy but they found some issues with her wright that might have killed the deal as I have not heard back from the buyer.

If you go to Paul Freeman's abandoned airfield website for South Carolina (Southeast) and review MCOLF Page Field there is a 1942 color photograph of a N3N in US Marines markings!! Ever seen one of those before? Me either!! http://www.airfields-freeman.com/SC/Air ... E.htm#page

This picture was taken circa 1983 over Xenia Ohio. I believe the aircraft is now in the UK.
