Owned by Allied Chemical Corp. at the time slide was taken. This a/c was part of a cancelled USN R4Y-2 order that Convair built anyway and sold on the civilian market. Originally a 440-0 version, it was converted to a 580 in May of 1965. This photo is copyright © Bob Thomas, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
