This Tutor was number 4 in the Canadian Forces Snowbirds first season in 1972. Flying in various positions with the Snowbirds 1972 - 75, the aircraft was withdrawn and designated an instructional airframe (753B) in 1976. Later transferred to Canadian Forces School of Aerospace Technology and Engineering at CFB Borden, it became part of the base museum in 2002. The aircraft has been returned to early period configuration with the original round domed nose cap and removal of the spin strakes on the forward fuselage.
