In 1980, while in San Pedro, California, I happened upon these three Grumman Goose airplanes behind the Catalina Air Terminal. N12CS #1085, N13CS # 1007, And N93G #1130. They all were in a pretty rough "mothballed" condition. The interior shot is of #1007. Serial # 1085 and 1130 are still around today. Serial #1007 appears to have been lost.
