Crashed? What's crashed about those TBD's? Here s a wrecked Kingfisher.crashed SBC-3 BuNo 0524 on USS Enterprise (VS-6) HOAR
Ground loop? Pretty impressive mountain in the background, I wonder where that's at ?
Yeah, no vegetation on it, either. And no ship ID on the airplane. Probably not Iwo Jima. Probably not Ascension Island. Maybe the Aleutians? There is bomb under the Right wing. Maybe ASW patrols?Pretty impressive mountain in the background, I wonder where that's at ?
The correct (factory) designation of the airplane is MBR-2-M-34N, the designation "bis" was used only for the civilian version.Finnish MBR-2bis VV-181 at Hirviranta, Joensuu on Lake Höytiainen in Autumn 1941 AERO

Going with the Finnish translation, sorry about that.The correct (factory) designation of the airplane is MBR-2-M-34N, the designation "bis" was used only for the civilian version.
Sure? The gun turrets and the Albacore sugest to me a british carrier, but I'm not a naval expert (indeed, no expert at anything)Seafire Fighters on an American carrier REDD
