Saw this over on the Wreck-Chasing board and figured that WIX could come to the rescue.

The guy who suggested identifying the QA stamp at AAIR is spot on. The guy who came up with the material spec is out to lunch. First off the QQ-A-362 spec wasn't developed in WW2 as such with the T-4 temper identifier for 2024. During WW2 material specs painted on aluminum sheet would be identified as 24T.

The QA stamps should tell you who the manufacturer was, that should be a big clue in finding out about this wreck.
