Notes: 6/15/04 - This U.S. Marines R2D-1 was about the 75th DC-2 built. DC-2-125, factory C/N 1326 was given Navy BuNo 9621 and delivered in late 1934.
You can learn more about this aircraft and other R2D's at the excellent web site: http://www.microworks.net/pacific/aviation/r2d.htm. I have not been able to find anything on its post-military history. Any help out there? |
