Planes of Fame Raiden 'Jack"

Fri Dec 20, 2013 9:04 pm

All

Does anyone have any images of this aircraft from its time at the Travel Town Museum, LA (postwar till 1958) or at the Air Museum from 1958 until the late 1960s?

TIA
Dave

Have contacted them, however Ed isn't well so won't trouble him any further till he is back to good health.
Also sent the TT Museum an eamil, but no response as yet.

They haven't had any planes at Travel Town for many years (30+?), so nobody still there may remember.

Hopefully they have a decent archive :wink:

My dad took me on a trip to LA in June of '65, mostly to go airport hopping. We saw this machine & he got a slide of it when it was stored along with other aircraft including the Zero and a TBM (or F, better mention both so I don't get another nit-picking personal email).

I didn't realize what this was until I showed John Maloney a print and he brought me up to speed. This was in 2007.
