OA-10A 44-33954 (CV-465) as she sits today at Anchorage, Alaska. She originally
crash-landed at Dago Lake on 30 September 1947 after her starboard engine threw a rod.
Efforts to salvage her over the years were unsuccessful due to her location and the
elements. She was finally brought to her present location via a CH-54 "Skycrane"
helicopter on 30 September 1987. She is slowly being restored by the Alaskan Historical
Aircraft Society, and is now sitting atop her own landing gear once again!
