I came across this aircraft while on a geocaching road trip in Hamilton, and after reading the memorial plaque, (In memory of Robert McKinley (Bob) Jack) His warm friendship was a standard of The Hamilton Air Force Association A comrade and manager Lost too soon 1976) I thought that it would be a shame not to bring others out to see this wonderful tribute.
