This helicopter was always a civil machine. Initially registered N653X for test-flying, it was delivered new to Pakistan International Airlines as AP-AOB in 1963. In 1968 it was sold to BEA Helicopters in the UK and registered G-AWFX. It later returned to the USA where it was converted to 'Fire King' standard. It later became N625CK with Croman.
