Default Great story

Hopefully you weren't too busy to take pictures.
You don't say where this recovery took place...

Default Serial #?

Have you the serial or chassis number please? It should be something like '28444xxxx' as it is evidently a 1942 MODEL C15A to Contract CDLV 317. However I have no information on Contract 317, and this C15A has a higher engine number WR3880534 than any other I know of. The serial is of course on the build plate that you got yhe engine # and contract # off, as well as the build date.

Thanks for the other serial # which I have added to my database.

David
