US Navy Patrol bomber. Composite aircraft rebuilt by Hawkins & Powers at Greybull, using major sections from N2870G (s/n 66304), N7962C (s/n 59882) and N3431G (s/n 66313). Even though most of the fuselage by far came from N3431G, the resulting composite airframe was wrongly given the ID of 66304 / N2870G, presumably for easier paperwork for the delivery flight from Greybull to the museum.
