| Sal Eagle River, AK | Even Though the capton in the photo I posted says "J2F-6" the aircraft is an OA-12 operated by the 10th Rescue Sq. OA-12s were basically J2F-6s modified (mainly radios and nav systems) for USAF rescue service. 03/20/2007 @ 03:59 [ref: 15965] |
| Sal Eagle River, AK | The J2F-6 listed as being present at the Air Force Museum is actually an OA-12 operated by the 10th Rescue Squadron out of Elmendorf AFB Alaska. It sould really be listed/presented in the OA-12 section. There is another OA-12 currently located at the Alaska Aviation Heritage Museum (AAHM) in Anchorage. It was an actual 10th RS bird (wreckage) that was recovered and restored by Craig Ketchum. He's still trying to sell it but in the mean time has graciously allowed the AAHM to display it in their hangar. I'll post a pic of it in the OA-12 section. 03/20/2007 @ 03:49 [ref: 15964] |
