About that LC-126 - J2F fiasco....
Profound apologies to all for my naivete in believing the USAF museum photo id when I posted the "LC-126" challenge.
I suppose the near-identical fuselage curves and the way Cessna modified the 170 to produce the single crew seat L-19 helped me delude myself. Also, because I knew the LC-126 was suspended from the museum ceiling, I ignored the Duck's cabane struts and wires, too. In the end, the only accurate clue I gave concerned the radial engine. Very embarrassing.
Evansb did a perfect job in correctly identifying the cockpit, despite the barriers I inadvertently erected. An difficult task extremely well done!
