 the red eagle is (according to another source the 1953 optional dealer installed) maybe not a 1951. I'll get clarification one of these days

The aircraft's engine had died during takeoff from the U.S.S. Sable, and the plane rolled off the bow of the ship and into the water. Amazingly, the pilot, Ensign William Forbes, survived.
