Photo at left: Claude F. Hendrickson Jr., Captain, USN (Ret.) Reunited with his
SNJ-4 that he flew on June 20, 1954 on his seventh flight as a Naval Air Cadet. Photo Taken November 10, 2008.

Courtesy customer Claude Hendrickson III, the son of the man pictured at left, had researched his father's navy log books and had been searching for years for one of the aircraft that his father actually flew in training. When Claude saw this aircraft listed on the Courtesy website, he knew he had to have it for his dad! Claude Hendrickson III purchased the aircraft and had it painted in the colors of his father's training squadron.
