Taken on strength by the Royal Canadian Air Force on June 8, 1954, this T-Bird was placed in storage at the Aerospace Maintenance Development Unit Detachment CFD Mountain View, ON February 20, 1969. The trainer was sold to the Royal Canadian Air Force Association 424 Wing, Cornwall ON circa 1972 and placed on display. While the aircraft had been painted in the (then) new Canadian Armed Forces scheme when acquired, the legion added an "R" in front of the "CAF" titles and replaced the serial with the original RCAF one on the tail.
