Originally delivered to the US Army Air Force as 42-55883 on November 24, 1942, this Lodestar possibly went to Mexico (XB-HOD?) in 1947. Becthel Corp registered it N9990F in June 1953, quickly changing to N220B by August . Later registered N221B in June 1961, the big twin was sold to Photo Air Laurentide as CF-SYV in March 1966. Pictured still wearing Becthel's colors with a cowling from Montreal based charter operator Execaire, it was sold in the USA in March 1977 to become N96334. The aircraft is current with IAT Ltd, airworthy / stored at Richmond Executive Airport (KFCI) in Virginia.
