Grumman J2F Duck
Encyclopedia : G : GR : GRU : Grumman J2F Duck
The Grumman J2F Duck was a single-engine amphibious biplane. It was originally designated as the Grumman G-15. It was produced from 1933 to 1945.
The Duck's main pontoon was part of the fuselage, making it a flying boat despite the similarity to a conventional landplane which has been float-equipped.
The aircraft was used by both the U.S. Navy and U.S. Coast Guard as utility aircraft for missions including mapping, rescue work, photography, and a target training.
