Cunningham-Hall PT-6 NC692W is one of two surviving aircraft of its type from the early days of aviation in the history of Alaska. The Cunningham-Hall PT-6 is a single-engine six-seat cabin biplane built by the Cunningham-Hall Aircraft Corporation, which was designed mainly as a personal transport. The aircraft, registered as NC692W, with c/n. 2962, was built in 1930 and is the second of its kind constructed. It was entirely rebuilt as a static display using non-airworthy materials in the 1970s.[2]
At the time of its listing on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places in 1978, it was stationed at the Transportation Museum of Alaska, in Palmer.[1] It was later moved to the Alaska Museum of Transportation and Industry in Wasilla, Alaska.
