41-7215 Airacobra
This photo was given to myself by Ian Mullins, who recovered this aircraft and partially restoring it before it was sold on to another restorer. The P-39 was located on Cape York Peninsula. During 1942 a flight of these was on its way to Papua New Guinea when they became lost, short of fuel and in bad weather. Several of them were landed in this location but only two were in good enough shape for recovery in later years.
