Notes:
When this Sikorsky was found in Alaska, the wing was being used as a footbridge and the fuselage was discarded in some brush. The plane was then traded to the Marine Corps Museum who then passed it onto Pima. The aircraft was restored to static condition and given the markings of the Marine Corps VMJ-2 while based in San Diego in 1939. The markings for the aircraft it represents was originally destroyed in a fire.
