Has the dubious distinction of carrying the last American Airman killed in the Pacific Theater when a plane was attacked while on a recon flight over Japan during the cease fire. One of these planes was saved for future preservation, but was salvaged when space was needed during the Korean war, thus only parts have survived. The biggest piece is here in San Diego at Montgomery Rec Center, in South San Diego. It is actually a static test wing that was donated by Consolidated/Convair Edited January 27, 2020 by Jesse C. 3 Quote Link to comment
