Prototype for the F2F-1. Seen here after flipping on landing. It was lost in another accident at NAS Anacostia in April 1938. Only 55 F2F were built and they served until 1943. The F2F left frontline service in 1939. Photo by: Rudy Arnold / Smithsonian Institution This photo was added on 29 June 2023, and has since been viewed 424 times. |
