Beautiful photo with the mirrored Goose living up to the airline logo. This JRF-6B went to the USAAF as an OA-9, 42-106981. N88821 delivered as the first Goose for Ellis Airlines in Ketchikan in November 1945. Became CF-EFN in 1974, then C-FEFN. Acquired by the Tongass Historical Society in 1992, and registered to them as N88821 in March 1993. It soon entered a lengthy and difficult restoration to static display condition in Ketchikan, which was still on-going by early 2022. Photo by: John L.
