Preserved Aircraft
- C-1A C-1BuNo 136754 on static display at the National Museum of Naval Aviation, NAS Pensacola, Florida
- C-1A BuNo 136790 on static display at the Grissom Air Museum, Grissom ARB (former Grissom AFB), Indiana
- C-1A BuNo 136792 on static display at the Quonset Air Museum, (former NAS Quonset Point), North Kingston, Rhode Island. This aircraft was modified with the Grumman E-1 Tracer type radome assembly (but no radar) and twin tails and served (under the designation XTF-1W) as the aerodynamic prototype for the E-1. After testing, it reverted to the transport role, (as C-1A) with radome removed but retaining the twin tails. Throughout, this aircraft retained the S-2/C-1 upward folding wings, not the E-1 wing fold which were necessitated (by the radome atop the fuselage) to fold wings back along the sides of the fuselage.

- C-1A BuNo 146036 on display on the USS Midway Museum, San Diego, California,

Famous quotes containing the word preserved:
“It was a quiet Sunday morning, with more of the auroral rosy and white than of the yellow light in it, as if it dated from earlier than the fall of man, and still preserved a heathenish integrity.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
