Kenyon 1918-2011 former Lockheed engineer & military sales manager as well as aviation consultant for Pan American TWA and the Venezuelan Airlines and later President of the Southern California Wing of the OX5 Aviation Pioneers. An extraordinary pre-publication souvenir album for the Northrop Corporation’s recovery and restoration of the N-3PB floatplane which was Jack Northrop’s first produced aircraft after he had established his company upon leaving Douglas in 1939. March 12 1940 the Norwegian government had contracted with Northrop to build 24 seagoing patrol bombers and he was able to design and build the prototype in less than eight months unfortunately test flying Nov. 1 1940 at Lake Elsinore CA 6 1/2 months after the Nazi German invasion and occupation of Norway by the end of June 1940. These exceptional images show the prototype N-3PB the flexible machine gun in the rear cockpit flight operations in Iceland and Wolford’s photos of test flights on Lake Elsinore. The first album’s photos include a list of plate captions detailing the photo showing Nos. 321 324 320 the restored plane and 315 in flight; N3PB’s packed on the beach; ground crew handling an N-3PB at the dock in Fossvogur and more. Although never delivered to Norway Norwegian pilots in the 330 Squadron flew out of Iceland controlled by Britain at the time and flew missions and fought against German Focke-Wulf FW 200 long range reconnaissance bombers and Blohm & Voss BV 138 Flying Boats. The remainder of both albums focus on the discovery recovery and restoration of No. 320 GS-U an N-3PB from 330 Squadron’s satellite base at Budareiry which was caught in a heavy snow shower and forced down in 1943. Discovered and then salvaged in 1979 through the efforts of a team of Icelandic Norwegian British and American volunteers led by Ragnar J. Ragnarsson vice president of the Icelandic Aviation Historical Society. These images show the lifting of the plane the restoration after its return to Northrop’s Hawthorne Factory where over 300 volunteers of the Western Museum of Flight’s staff and former Northrop employees rebuilt it to its 1943 appearance and rolled it out Nov. 10 1980. Many of the images included here augment those mounted within the souvenir albums showing more stages and some include black & white as well as colour images. The floatplane was displayed in Reykjavik at its’ former Icelandic home base and finally installed at the Norwegian Armed Forces Museum at Gardermoen Airport. It was believed to be the only known survivor until 2003 when another was discovered in the waters off Reykjavik and may eventually be recovered. Roy Wolford 1915-2013 began as an aircraft mechanic and followed Northrop when he set up his corporation becoming the company’s official photographer and head of the photography department. Although unsigned many of these images are attributed to Wolford.
