Kermit Weeks and his desert storage stash

Kermit Weeks shared this picture via Facebook on 3 July of some of his aircraft located at the Aero Trader yard in California. Not sure if these will ever come to Florida but one can hope.

The A-20G Havoc, 43-22197, was owned by Howard Hughes at one point. The B-26C nose, 41-35075, was previously owned Charles Patterson of Pacific Palisades, who bought this nose in the late 40s. B-29 nose is either, 44-70049 or 44-84084, and both were rescued from China Lake NAS for the movie “The Last Flight of Noah’s Ark.”
