This N3N is on display at the super Udvar-Hazy Center of the NASM but was previously part of the Naval Academy's training squadron at Annapolis, Maryland. The N3N nickname of the 'Yellow Peril' derived from the aircraft's propensity to ground loop on landing as the narrow landing gear did not provide much lateral stability at higher touchdown speeds. These seaplanes, when retired in 1961, were the last biplanes retired from US military service.

With small titles barely visible in front of the cockpit. This aircraft was later restored to flying condition. Ex USN BuNo 2741.

Ex US Navy training aircraft serial BuAer 3061. Used for aerobatic instruction at Boeing Field.

817 examples of this primary trainer design were built by the NAF at Philadelphia from 1936. The c/n 2771 as quoted by the FAA is actually its US Navy Bureau of Aeronautics serial number.

A rare bird in Europe.

The US Navy's N3N trainer could operate on wheels or floats - note that the tailwheel is still fitted here. Second Series BuNo 2892 became N120BH in 1970. The aircraft carries both N120BH and 2892.
