It was withdrawn from service in 1970. It was destined for Yemen, but this fell through. and it was stored at Belgrade. In 1973 N94480 was allocated, but not taken up. The same with N94437 in 1974.

Part of the outdoor collection of the Aviation museum at Belgrade Airport, this would look so good if fully restored and painted.
