It’s a Grumman Mallard

Already an exceptionally nice-looking plane, this Grumman G-73 was made even more handsome after Wien and their paint shop got through with it. Nicknamed the “Katmai Queen,” this Mallard (N1208) was caught on camera at Boeing Field sometime in the 1970s. 

In photo #1, a DC-7 of the “Stardusters Air Travel Club” is visible.
