Ran the numbers on that red Norseman N1047N, and it doesn't seem to be around anymore. Last info I found was from accident-report.com where it was apparently run into by a C-45F at Nakner AFB, Alaska on May 28, 1951. No pilot was listed on the Norseman, so I imagine it was a ground collision.


Ooops! I bet someone was PO'd after that.

Did you mean Naknek? on the King Salmon River that flows into Kvichak Bay an arm of Bristol Bay? isn't/wasn't an A.F.B. just an 'air base' perhaps a remote service field but not an active A.F.B.

Probably an errant digit from some bean massager at Igloo Puk who wonders where in the heck 'Ko dye ack Island' is. King Salmon up river is big enough to handle Alaska Airlines 737's.
