    Event

    Constructed as a P-1.

    To W. L. Hodson.

    Restored.
    Markings Applied: A6969
    Rebuilt and marked to represent A6969. The original A6969 was written off on 17 December 1929 after a crash landing on Jones Farm, Hampton, VA.

    To Roy Reagan, Chico, CA with new c/r N6969.

    By 1986

    Markings Applied: U.S.NAVY, A6969
    Apparently Mr. Reagan had painted and marked the plane as F6C-1 A6969 because the NMNA said its been on display since 1986, the year they acquired it, so it must have been painted as such.

    1986

    To National Museum of Naval Aviation, NAS Pensacola, Pensacola, FL.
