Re: Two R4C-1 stories ?

Ah Stig, your limitless files are quarried once again!

The two R4Cs were withdrawn from the Marines (VMJ-2) in August 1939 and sent to the Naval Aircraft Factory for overhaul and installation of an additional fuel tank. They were then transferred to the US Antarctic Survey in October that year (BuNo 9584) and November (BuNo 9585). Both were stricken by the Navy on 31 July 1941.
