Originally built for RCAF with serial 23203. Acquired and operated by Flight Systems Inc. from 1977 through 1983. Converted by FSI into a QF-86E target drone for use by the US Army at the White Sands Missile Range. It survived that, and in 1983 was retired by FSI and the FAA registration expired in June 1983.
