RR Dart Albatross

Grumman HU-16A Albatross N 16CA at Smyrna Beach Airport Florida Oct 2003. Converted to Dart power by Conroy Aircraft Inc this being the only Albatross to be modified as such. The amphibian was de-registered in Jan 2013 at the expiry of the airworthiness certificate. In 2014 the fuselage minus the tail section became a traveling trailer mounted exhibit for the American Airpower Museum, located at the ex Republic Aviation factory Farmingdale Long Island NY. Smyrna Beach is roughly halfway between Titusville and Daytona Beach on the Florida east coast.
