Under repair after a take-off accident April 3, 1981 which damaged the belly. This Norseman was first delivered to the USAAF October 13, 1943 as 43-5237. Sent to the Reconstruction Finance Corporation on November 30, 1945 for disposal, it became N55555 flying many years in Alaska. After refurbishment (again) in 1992 it was donated to the Alaskaland Pioneer Air Museum, Fairbanks, Alaska where it remains on display.
