The identity of this Beech 18 is not definitively confirmed but is often given as '6144', although this is an incorrect serial for the RCAF. Around 1968, after service with the RCAF, Beech 18NM '2373' went to Priority Air Transport System Corp. at Redwood City, CA as N16144. In April 1972 the aircraft nose struck the ground during a landing at Coso Junction CA and it appears that the remains of the air frame are now on display at the Memorial Military Museum (any corrections/additions welcome).
