In front of the Coast Guard hangar at Floyd Bennett Field. The source gives the same 6 July 1940 date for this as Rudy Arnold's other shots of this aircraft, but the special paint makes clear it was likely taken in February 1941, towards the end of its flight through the Americas. Rios Montenegro and Rivery Ortiz arrived at NOP on 4 February 1941 and departed for Havana via Miami one week later.
