I have seen a web page featuring a Noorduyn Norseman aircraft which was found in a barn, probably back in the 1990s, painted red with white N-numbers and striping trim.  This a/c had a full complement of Command Set radios, not sure if they were ARC-5 or ATA/ARA but they were all black, still installed when it was discovered.  The web page is probably still out there somewhere.  It would be interesting to examine the maintenance records for this bird.
