I believe that it is the CAF's "Sentimental Journey" when she was called, "Class of '44".

Cool!
Any other confirmation of this?

I have never seen SJ painted as anything other than her Aero Union paint.


Thanks.
Z

That is Sentimental Journey. When Aero Union was trying to sell her, they painted her in some markings and called her the Class of 44, a play on the serial number, 44-83514. When the plane was purchased and donated to the CAF to form the Az Wing, the local newspaper held a statewide name the plane contest, and Sentimental Journey was the winning name.
