This aircraft, delivered to US Navy, was in service from 1955 to 1978.

N9412H She's screaming ... "Please rescue me now before it's to late!" Whenever I'm in the area I always stop by to check on the status of this beautiful Connie. Unfortunately years of neglect are taking its toll and she's beginning to fall apart. What a sad sight to see. (Howard Chaloner on Airliners.net)

Frank,

Thought you and the others might appreciate this pic. This is the beautiful Old Gal just as she sits today [12-4-05] here in the Florida Sunshine at Fantasy of Flight near Polk City, FL.
