Delivered to the US Army January 7, 1956, this Beaver hit the civilian market in 1976 going to the Civil Air Patrol. CAP would later replace the two port hole windows with 6 enlarged cabin windows. N5342G suffered major damage February 20, 2009 crashing into trees on take-off just outside of Kenai AK. In 2012 the wreck was tendered for sale with the stipulation the aircraft remains be scrapped.
