Post by Lenny11 »

Having sat down to look at my photos from our Superbowl trip and trawling through many internet photos with special reference to David D Jackson's S-2F Trackers Survivors .I have come up with a more uptodate listing with dates found on different databases,but still open to help if anyone has better evidence.
https://www.grummantracker.com/marshphotos.htm

I also took a video on to help.

Using David's "Plan" from his site (Have included CIVIL registered a/c now,Numbers /Codes NOT in brackets are confirmed and read off.Hopefully my typed positions stay when sent ( No it didn't so editing)



North

West Most Row

(N147MA) /26
(N613MA) / 180

136724 Facing West


(136666)/ 14 (ex 4114 code on nose door)


Middle Row

(N729MA) assumed for its bare metal

(136668 / 4116 ) ID from blocking Paint on Tail
146031 Full Fuselage this was due to go to Brazil facing East



South End (By gate)

136740 /43 still facing N by gate

East Row (By offices and not in David's website)

(N736MA) / 154 Facing North
(N746MA) / 155 Facing South




I still thought I noticed 2 at far west but no photo evidence.(and not great view over the wall )

Query while there we noticed at first from the museum car park 2 x A-4's in the Top Aces hangar coded 478 and 491 on going to the hangar the door entry door was open but staff were vaping outside so not able to hand around one was definetly Canadian and in new Grey/White scheme any ideas or sightings

Hi Michael

Noted in their hangar (through the windows next to the turning circle) on 10Feb2023 were C-FGYL mkd 478 and another that was in 2 halves for maintenance mkd 491 but registration not visible.

Hope that helps
