Actually, I believe that this is the Columbia Aircraft Company built J2F-6. Columbia manufactured the Duck under license in Valley Stream, Long Island, just 15 minutes from Grumman's plant.

Actually this one the J2F-6 number 78 comes from the production unit 34F and rolled of the production line at 12:34 teusday march 1937.

They finnish this one just before lunch break actually.
So they could all go together to Mc Donald's wich was just 7 minutes and 35 seconds driving from the grumman factory, so they could made that trip in just 3 minutes and 45 seconds.

After they made number 80 the company was almost sold to Kurt tank, but they didn't like bratwurst

just some facts

What do you mean "no McDonalds in 1937"? There have been McDonalds around for hundreds of years.

Joking aside,

"In the anglecized gaelic of our ancestors, our name was (and is) MacDhomhnaill _ "son of Donald". Common English variations of the name are: Macdonald, MacDonald, Macdonnell, McDonnell , McDonald. One can also find, particulary in the United States, McDaniel, McDanel, McDonel, etc.

In the course of my genealogical research, I've found over thirty variations of the name - some are obviously mistakes made by writers unfamiliar with the name, others spellings were probably considered perfectly acceptable by tthe people who used them. Other variations include: McDonnald, M'Donnald, MDonel, McDonell, McDonnel, McDanel(s), McDonold, McDaneld, etc."
