Registered Apr52 as SX-EAV to the Royal Aero Club of Greece, Tatoi. Appeared in the movie “Yperifanoi Aetoi (Proud Eagles)” [1971]. Registration expired by 1976. Registered as N3840K. The airplane was substantially damaged during landing when it departed the runway and nosed over at Fostoria Metropolitan Airport, OH 3Apr07. The pilot noted that the intended destination was a planned fuel stop en route from Youngstown, OH to his final destination. Entering the traffic pattern, it was apparent that the winds were stronger than forecast and, during the landing, a gust of wind struck the plane. The airplane sustained substantial damage when it impacted terrain during the base leg turn of a visual approach to land at the Youngstown Elser Metro Airport (4G4), Youngstown, Ohio 14Apr08. The flight was a post maintenance test flight. If the test flight was successful, the pilot planned to continue flying to the first fuel stop at Ruhe's Airport (R47), Leipsic, Ohio. The maintenance test flight was required due to extensive airframe and engine repairs. The pilot did two engine run-ups prior to takeoff, and he noted that the engine was ‘missing’. During the first takeoff the engine 'missed' twice and the takeoff was aborted. The pilot taxied back to the ramp and the maintenance manager told him that the engine needed to warm up more before takeoff. He concurred and allowed the engine more warm up time before the next takeoff. The pilot departed and flew a close-in traffic pattern at an altitude of about 500 - 800 feet above ground level (agl) in case of an engine failure. After a touch and go was performed, he made an aggressive pull-up prior to the crosswind turn, and entered into a right downwind leg at 500 - 800 feet agl at 80 knots. When he was about abeam the landing zone, he pulled the power to idle and started a turn to base in about a 30-degree angle of bank turn. About halfway through the turn, the pilot felt a strong gust/shear from behind. He glanced at the airspeed indicator and saw the airspeed needle passing through 60 knots and it was trending down. He applied full throttle but the aircraft did not seem to respond. The engine did not quit, but it did not feel like the engine responded instantaneously. The airplane stalled, the nose pitched down, and impacted the ground about 1/4 mile from the end of the runway. Registration current [Aug20]. 43306 (MSN 75-8400) ex USAAF 42-109367. NAS Ottumwa, IA.

Substantially damaged in a collision during landing at a fly-in at Deland, FL 23Sep93. The airstrip owner had advised the pilot to use a right traffic pattern for landing due to the number of aircraft involved in a fly-in. As the Stearman pilot was in a right pattern to land, a Cessna 150 (N2660J), which was arriving from another airport, was in a left pattern for landing on the same runway. Subsequently, the two aircraft converged on final approach and collided. Both aircraft touched down hard and sustained substantial damage; the occupants of both aircraft received minor injuries. Both pilots were monitoring the same radio frequency of a nearby airport, but neither pilot transmitted intentions for landing. Investigation revealed that just before the collision, the Cessna 150 was below the Stearman as they converged. According to the airman's information manual, all turns in the traffic pattern should have been made to the left, while approaching to land, unless a traffic pattern indicator indicated otherwise. Neither a traffic pattern indicator nor a Unicom radio were installed at the airstrip. Used in the Jimmy Buffet music video, Trip Around the Sun, 2004.

Investigation revealed a mix of avgas and autogas was used. The pilot said that he cleared the engine on base leg and that carburettor heat was off momentarily when he applied power for a go-around.

After the 1957 operations had ended, eleven planes were returning to the U.S. from Charlo airstrip in the northern part of New Brunswick when five planes were forced down near Penniac, just north of Fredericton, NB 5Jul57. All the pilots escaped serious injury as heavy fog and fuel exhaustion were the main cause of the accident. Two of the aircraft were extensively damaged. The squadron was headed to Fredericton Municipal Airport to refuel but the airfield was fogged in. They were over Penniac when this plane was forced down in a field, broke through a fence and nosed over, losing a wing tip. Two Stearmans circled over the field until the pilot signaled that he was OK. They then ran out of fuel near Charters Settlement; two other planes were forced down along the St. John River, but the rest of the squadron returned to the Taxis airstrip, six miles west of Boiestown, New Brunswick.

Damaged in an accident landing at an Outlying Field ten miles from NAS Corpus Christi 27Nov46. Registered as N770WM. Substantially damaged in a collision with the end of a tractor-trailer truck while trying to return to the Oakland, California, airport following a loss of power after takeoff 11Oct98. The Aerial Advertising Company was operating a banner tow flight. The pilot had successfully completed three flights in the airplane on the day of the accident. He refueled between the second and third flights, which were both banner tows. The third flight, over the Oakland Coliseum, was only fifteen minutes in duration. The pilot returned to base, shut the airplane down, and elected to remain in it while waiting for an aerial demonstration team to complete two passes over the tow area. Once the area was clear the pilot restarted, taxied to the runway intersection and completed a modified run-up. He normally checked controls, instruments, fuel, trim, radios, and seat belts; then he would run the engine up to check the magnetos, carburettor heat, and cycle the propeller. Since he had flown several flights with no problems, he only did the magneto check. He set the engine at 1,500 rpm, and checked the magnetos; they were smooth, operational, and within limits. The engine ran perfect during takeoff and the pilot flew the routine approved pattern. He started a climb of 30 degrees with the power set at approximately 30 inches of manifold pressure, mixture full rich, propeller full forward, then back a little. At 400 feet, he initiated a right 270-degree turn and leveled off. During the level off, power was reduced to 24 inches of manifold pressure. During the turn the pilot heard a pop and the engine stopped producing power. He immediately lowered the nose and headed for the only open area he could see, a concrete pad in a construction area. He pumped the throttle several times and verified that the fuel was on. A road along the airport perimeter ran perpendicular to his flight path. A tractor-trailer truck was moving from the pilot's left to right. The pilot thought the truck would clear before his arrival, but the truck stopped in his path. The pilot was unable to maneuver and the right wing struck the trailer. The airplane pivoted and the engine and propeller struck the back corner of the trailer. The engine separated and the airplane came to rest on a fence. Registration cancelled 8Jan18. 43510 (MSN 75-8604) ex USAAF 42-109571. VN1-B, NAAS Rodd, Corpus Christi, TX.

Major damage in an accident during takeoff from an Outlying Field thirteen miles from NAS Corpus Christi, TX 16Jun47. Registered as N1259V. Damaged when the right wing tip scraped the runway landing at Denver, CO 5Apr92. The airplane was substantially damaged when it struck power lines and impacted terrain during a go-around at Aurora Air Park, Watkins, Colorado 9Sep01. The pilot set up for a normal landing on the runway. Just after touching down, on the mains in a tail low attitude, a strong gust of wind caused the Stearman to start to drift. The pilot added full power to abort the landing. The airplane touched down several times on open land as the pilot attempted to get airborne. Even with full power, the aircraft would not climb or accelerate but stayed essentially in ground effect. The pilot then saw power poles and lines and realized he would be unable to climb over them. He lowered the nose and attempted to fly under the lines. The left wing was torn off when it struck a guy wire for a pole, and the airplane came to a halt resting on its nose.

Substantially damaged when ground looped, nosed over and came to rest inverted landing at Penridge, PA 17Jul14. According to the pilot, this was the fifth landing in the tail wheel equipped airplane that morning, with the other four landings being at a nearby airport. During the approach with a right quartering headwind, he maintained a normal approach speed and landed the airplane utilizing a 3-point landing technique. During the landing rollout, the airplane began to drift to the right and he applied left rudder to correct. As the airplane approached the edge of the paved surface he applied brake pressure. Subsequently, the airplane nosed over and came to rest inverted which resulted in substantial damage to the rudder. Registration current [Aug20]. 43556 (MSN 75-8650) ex USAAF 42-109617.

The airplane was substantially damaged when it collided with trees during a forced landing near Atwater, Ohio 18Jul00. The pilot took off from his private airstrip located at Atwater on a pleasure flight. After a short time at level flight cruise RPM, just south of Rootstown, he felt vibration from the engine, made a left turn back towards the departure airport. Vibration became worse with loss of RPM. He told his passenger, the pilot's son, that he would land at Gay's airport that was ahead and to the left. At this time the engine froze, stopping the propeller. The pilot set up to land in a corn field straight ahead with a line of trees on the approach end. The aircraft hit the trees and stopped nose down. The nose of the airplane was pointed into the ground with the tail partially hung in the trees; all four wings were damaged. Teardown of the engine was difficult due to the massive internal failure of the engine. On further investigation of the engine it was determined that the crankshaft had a complete break in the first throw of the shaft. It was noted that prior to the accident the metal propeller had been replaced with a wood propeller; this was the first flight after the metal propeller was removed and the wood propeller was installed.

Registered Jun79 as N1049A as a North American-Medore T-6D; cancelled 19Feb97. Impacted terrain while maneuvering at low altitude at a private airstrip, one mile west of Richvale, California 3Nov95. The aircraft was destroyed and the pilot was fatally injured. The aircraft had been loaned to the pilot for the local area personal flight by the owner, Av-Ag Inc., of Richvale. The flight departed from the Av-Ag Inc. private airport. The owner/operator of the aircraft and a mechanic witnessed the accident. They reported that the pilot departed then did a pull-up course reversal and flew southbound over the runway. At the south end of the runway the pilot did a right-hand climbing turn to a northerly heading and commenced an aileron roll. During the roll the nose of the aircraft dropped and the aircraft descended with insufficient altitude to recover. It impacted the ground in a upright, wings level, nose-low attitude and burned on impact. The engine sounded normal to the witnesses throughout the flight. The owner/operator told NTSB investigators that the pilot had worked as a contract ag-pilot for 25 years and had accumulated over 23,000 hours flying time. Prior to becoming an ag-pilot he was a demonstration aerobatic pilot in the Swedish Air Force flying the AT-6 aircraft. Earlier in the morning of the accident the pilot had seeded a field for the operator and had then asked to fly the AT-6. 43644 (MSN 88-15309) Modified with two 30mm machine guns and a bomb rack mounted below each wing; designated SNJ-5B.

During the landing flare, the airplane floated due to, what the pilot later surmised, convective currents from the hot soil. The airplane subsequently touched down long and overran the end of the 1,380-foot airstrip. During the overrun, the airplane encountered a soft spot in the adjoining onion field and nosed over. The airplane sustained substantial damage to the rudder and vertical fin. The landing direction was to the north, while the nearest recorded airport weather indicated that the wind was from the east at 5 knots 43710 (MSN 88-15591) 43711 (MSN 88-15592) 43712/43741 ex-USAAF AT-6D 41-34453/34482 (MSN 88-15653/15682) 43712 (MSN 88-15653) 43713 (MSN 88-15654) 43714 (MSN 88-15655) 43715 (MSN 88-15656) 43716 (MSN 88-15657) 43717 (MSN 88-15658) BTU-1N, NAAS Whiting Field, Milton, FL.

Substantially damaged when the French student pilot lost control at Whiting Field 5Dec52. The first civilian owner was a Cuban National that flew this SNJ to Cuba and based it at Havana International. As Castro came to power, the SNJ was quickly flown out of Cuba to Miami to escape seizure. The owner went back to Havana to retrieve his remaining possessions, but was never heard from again. The Miami Airport Authority eventually seized the plane and auctioned it. Registered 1960 as N8214E. Based at Tamiami Airport. Sold and based at Myrtle Beach, SC. The airport authority there issued an odd regulation requiring any ex-military aircraft based there to amend their registration tail number to include an “MB” suffix for Myrtle Beach. Reregistered Jul78 as N214MB. Sold in the mid eighties. It was dismantled for an intended restoration but ended up abandoned and languishing in thousands of unmarked pieces on a local hangar floor.

Lance Aircraft Supply, Dallas, TX, 3Oct94. Registered as N830JD. The aircraft ran off the departure end of the runway during a precautionary landing at Luray Caverns Airport, Luray, Virginia 9Aug95. The pilot and passenger received serious injuries and the aircraft sustained substantial damage. The flight originated from Elkins, West Virginia. The accident airplane was one of a flight of seven airplanes which were en route to Andrews AFB, Maryland to participate in the Freedom Flight, an event commemorating the fiftieth anniversary of the end of World War II. The flight of seven airplanes stopped at Elkins-Randolph County-Jennings Randolph Field, in Elkins, West Virginia, to refuel. The pilot reported that, due to injuries he sustained in the accident, he has not been able to recall any specifics of the accident flight. According to one of the other pilots (pilot/witness) in the flight, the seven airplanes were cruising in formation at an altitude of between six and eight thousand feet, when he heard the pilot of the accident airplane state over the radio that he had an oil problem. The pilot/witness had a handheld Global Positioning System (GPS) unit, and provided the pilot of the accident airplane with the magnetic bearing and distance to the nearest airport. The pilot/witness stated that he observed the accident airplane begin an immediate descent and turn for what appeared to be a straight in approach to the runway. Witnesses on the ground reported that they saw the airplane on final approach for the runway, with landing gear and flaps extended. They stated that the airplane appeared unusually high on the approach. One witness reported that the pilot of the accident airplane appeared to fly down about 3/4 of the length of the runway, at an estimated altitude of 200 feet above the ground, before attempting to land on the last quarter of the runway. The pilot/witness stated that he followed the accident airplane to the airport, and watched as the airplane touched down at what he thought was about halfway down the runway. The airplane appeared to have touched down within 250 feet of the departure end of the 3,125 feet long asphalt runway. The airplane continued off the departure end of the runway, down a steep embankment, and across a utility road, before it collided with another embankment and came to a stop. The airplane came to rest with one propeller blade bent aft and under the fuselage. The bottom portion of the radial engine was pushed in towards the fuselage approximately 12 inches. The FAA inspectors reported that during their initial examination of the airplane, they noted that the fuel tanks in both wings were approximately half full of fuel, but there was no oil in the oil tank. They found no evidence of oil on the belly or windscreen of the airplane. Reregistered 27Apr99 as N3770P; current [Jan20]. D amaged taxying at Riverside Airport, Tulsa, OK 14Nov15. The pilot was instructed by local control after landing 19L to cross runway 19R on runway 31. The aircraft cleared 19R and performed a clearing turn to check traffic. Another aircraft, a Cessna 180, was immediately in front of (approx 100 ft.) the SNJ holding short of taxiway A. Upon vigorous application of brakes, the SNJ nosed over resulting in a propeller strike. No other damage to persons or property. The Cessna 180 had been instructed by ground control to hold short of the taxiway. The SNJ had not transitioned to ground control frequency (nor been told to) at the time of visual sighting of the C-180 43771 (MSN 88-15762, ex 41-34532) Registered as N8099H.

Witnesses saw the aircraft's right wing drop before the plane touched down. The resulting impact tore the wings and engine off, killing the pilot, but the passenger survived. An investigation revealed that a field wire in the generator had shorted. This allowed unregulated voltage through parts of the wiring harness and cause the insulation to overheat and smolder.

The aircraft impacted a tree and terrain after a loss of engine power during take-off from Hat Field Airport (5N7), near Nunica, Michigan 17Sep11. It sustained substantial firewall, fuselage, and wing damage. The flight was originating at the time of the accident and was destined for the Mason Jewett Field Airport, near Mason, Michigan. The airplane was the fourth airplane in a flight of multiple airplanes to depart the airport. The pilot indicated that he applied full take-off power. As the airplane passed about two-thirds of the runway’s length, the airplane had a positive rate of climb. The low fuel pressure light illuminated just before gear retraction, the fuel pressure dropped to zero, and the engine abruptly quit. The pilot lowered the airplane’s nose and impacted a tree during the forced descent. The impact turned the plane, causing it to hit the ground at a vertical angle tearing the engine and propeller from the plane.

Aircraft had departed Van Nuys Airport. Six minutes after take-off, the aircraft suffered an engine problem that caused a loss of engine power. The pilot chose to land on the 101 freeway. After landing the pilot veered to the left to miss a car in front of him. This caused the left wing to make contact with the center divider which caused the left wing fuel tank to rupture. Spilled fuel immediately caught fire as the plane came to stop on its nose. The pilot immediately got out of the aircraft with no injuries. The aircraft did not strike any cars on the freeway. The only damage was to the aircraft which was partially consumed by the post crash fire.

Robert Cosgrove armed with a mark 13, mod 6 aerial torpedo. One of six Avengers participating in strike #4A leading the torpedo bomber strike against Japanese vessels in Manila Bay. Flying at an altitude of 10,000', the formation included eight F6F Hellcats from VF-15 plus seven SB2C dive bombers from VB-15. Also participating were VF-19, VB-19 and VT-19 from USS Ticonderoga CV-14.The weather was .3 overcast at 4,000-5,000'. Approaching the target area from the northeast, the Avengers broke off from the formation to circle Manila Bay that was crowded with transports and warships before making torpedo attacks from west to east. This Avenger made a torpedo run from 800' releasing 3,000 yards off the starboard beam of an unidentified light cruiser off Cavite. Just as the torpedo was released, this Avenger was hit by medium anti-aircraft fire in the rear gunners position and fuselage. Aboard gunner AMM2c Loyce E. Deen was fatally wounded and died at his position. Damaged, Lt. Cosgrove did not observe the wake of his torpedo nor an explosion before withdrawing to the west. After sucessfully landing at 4:43pm Deen's body was trapped inside due to the damage and was unable to be removed. His fingerprints were taken and dog tags removed and a shroud placed over the turret. With the wings folded, this Avenger was towed to the stern of the carrier for a memorial service by the chaplin on the wing of the plane. Many crew members looked on including Captain Carlos W. Wieber, Commanding Officer (C. O.) of USS Essex. At the conclusion of the ceremony, men pushed this Avenger off the stern where the aircraft floated briefly before sinking.

At the time the pilot was flying at 300 feet below heavy cloud off Sumba Island. He jettisoned his mines, but the plane continued to lose altitude and he was forced to alight on the open sea. The hull of the Catalina aircraft was damaged and began to leak. However, the water was kept down by bailing. Using the radio-telephone, the crew was able to make its position known to returning minelayers. All night they worked on the faulty engine, but without success. However, in the morning, a Catalina aircraft of No. 43 Squadron RAAF, landed in the heavy swell, covered by a Liberator aircraft, and took off the crew. The Catalina then destroyed the disabled Catalina aircraft with machine-gun fire and returned safely to base 46533 (CAC no 1727, Seq no. t384, Hull # 1897) to RAAF as A24-97. 42 Sqn Aug 5, 1944. 11 Sqn Jul 13, 1945. 114 Air Sea Rescue Flight Oct 15, 1945 Sold to C.
