Primarily used for reconnaissance, Grumman’s J2F-6 “Duck” served before, during and after World War II.
Variations of this plane served as medical transport, air taxi and photo-reconnaissance. Designed for a crew of two, pilot and rear gunner, a third crewman could be added in the space behind the wing in the float.
Donated to the EAA Aviation Foundation in 1974, a fourteen month restoration projected began in 1982 resulted in how the plane appears today. This plane can be found at EAA Airventure Museum in Oshkosh, Wisconsin.
