Well, the aircraft in the FAA registration that you just showed is actually one of the following...

Seems the N number is obviously not part of the FH-1 anymore.

That is one sexy airplane. The jet I mean.

The old '70s Air Classics article, as I recall, stated that this was the one that ended up at Pensacola (and also that the registration was first incorrectly painted on as N2482A).

This aircraft USN # 111761 and also 111768 went to an outfit named:
Progressive Aero. 111761 was assigned N# N4282A and was scrapped for spare parts. 111768 was assigned N# N4283A and went USMC Museum, and now is with Wings of Eagles Museum at Elmira, NY. Would love to see a photo of 111768 with N # on it.

This is a follow up to my post above. The FH-1 on display at
USN Museum in Pensacola is FH-1, 111793, Ex N3933N. Also
would love to see photo of her with the N number on it.
