Photo Comment

This 'Bamboo Bomber' is painted with green engine cowls and sash to represent a JRC-1 Navy WWII era trainer and is on display at the wonderful National Naval Aviation Museum. It carries a fake serial (63426 was a Vought F4U-4 Corsair), and never served with the Navy. Ex USAAF 43-7995, then civil as N63426.
