I´m looking for information on two Grumman Albatross(es?

) that I´m doing a little research on.

The first one is c/n G423, BuNo141276 N43155 An internet search has that as being airworthy in 2011 and the latest photograph I could find of it was sitting in Santa Rosa Ca. in December 2011. Anyone know if that one still exists and if it is airworthy?

The second one is c/n G368 BuNo142361 ex-N143DB VH-MAH Last know location partially dismantled in Australia in 2006.

Not that this answers your question, but if you Google Map the Santa Rosa airport and zoom-in there are two Albatross' sitting near the museum and one closer to the main terminal.

The more I look around that airport the more Albatrii I find!!!
I came up with these~

One at the museum
Two near the museum (with a B-25)
Two sorta close to the terminal (with a an A-26?)
One south end of the airport (near a DC-3)
and one on the west side off alone.

Do you know where abouts in Australia it is dismantled? It is still registered to Geoff up in Darwin. I have a mate up there who can go check out some hangers if need be.
