N2871G - 1945? Constructed as a PB4Y-2.

Some history at: http://www.aerialvisuals.ca/AirframeDossier.php?Serial=16969
SUPER THANK YOU! to everyone who helps keep these Ol’ historical birds flying
(I think this is correct, same BuNo "66302")

N2871G is the correct tail number

A relatively rare airplane from 1945 - cousin to the B-24. Take your pick: one BIG vertical tail, or two smaller ones.

Jay and Jesse are correct, the FAA N number for this bird is: N2871G. The military serial number (or BuNo as Jesse stated) is: 66302. And if you use the ICAO code of: P4Y, FA will show the aircraft type as: CONVAIR Privateer. If you're interested you can check my shot of the aircraft at:

I got to see it back in 2012 at 40G (Valle, AZ airport) when it was wearing different paint. Keep up the good work, Matt!
