On 19 July 1987 this TT-1 landed short of the runway at Hayward, CA. after the engine flamed out. Both the pilot and passenger survived. It has since been reregistered as N2697B, but its current airworthiness is unknown. There were 14 TT-1 Pinto a/c produced for the US Navy. The TT-1 was put through operational testing at NAAS Saufley Field, but no further a/c were built. The flying qualities of the TT-1 were satisfactory, however it was underpowered and did not have enough fuel aboard for an average 1 hour training flight plus contingency fuel.

Taxiing out for the return flight down San Francisco Bay to Oakland Airport, where this B-29 was based. Built as B-29 45-21787. Transferred to US Navy as P2B-1S BuNo. 84029. Its US insignia, Skyrocket launch record board and the recently applied NACA tail markings had all been removed for use in the 1979 Disney movie "The Last Flight of Noah's Ark". Those markings had all been re-applied by November 1979.
