This a/c was redesignated a GF-100C in October 1962, and was used as a ground instructional airframe at Chanute AFB, IL. When the base closed it was transferred to the Chanute Air Museum. When the museum closed in 2015 it was transferred to the Yankee Air Museum in Ypsilanti, Michigan where it is on display.
