Photo Comment

Looking immaculate while still in service with VT-27, this Trojan went on to a civilian life with the State of Alaska's Department of Forestry. Reported derelict at Fairbanks in 1990, it then underwent a seven-year restoration to airworthiness and remains active as N887N in USN colours, making an appearance at the 2018 Oshkosh show
