This P-3 was TOC by the USN with the BuNo. 148276. It was the third of three frames modified into a NP-3A for the US Naval Research Laboratory before being transferred to NASA as, firstly, N927NA and then N428NA. It was on display as an outside exhibit at the National Naval Aviation Museum in Pensacola, Florida although I believe it has now been scrapped..

Possibly one of the most interesting/informative exhibits in the whole of the National Museum of Naval Aviation is this PBY cutaway. Fascinating to see the different crew positions and how they were able to do their jobs.

This F4U had a relatively long service life for a WWII era prop serving from 1946 to 56 before being SOC. She then languished somewhat in California before being acquired in 1985 and restored by the wonderful National Naval Aviation Museum, where she is displayed in the colours of a VMF-312 'Checkerboards' aircraft.

Part of the floorspace in the West Wing of the National Naval Aviation Museum in Pensacola is given over to a representation of the deck of the Independence-class carrier USS Cabot (CVL-28). it is a fabulous museum and well worth the long journey for me to visit!

The FJ-2 Fury was developed as a swept-wing, carrier capable fighter from the F-86 Sabre (the similarities are evident). Of 200 built very few are extant and this one is displayed at the National Naval Aviation Museum in the markings of an aircraft assigned to the Naval Air Test Center, Patuxent River, although, in reality she was based for her entire service life in California and Hawaii.
