Delivered to the USAAF as 44-78764 in 1945. To Slick Airways as N67970 in 1949. Back to the USAF as 44-78764 in 1954 then sold as N67970 in 1955 and used by a number of operators. Used by Trans Continental Airlines from 1976 to 1982. To the Mexican Air Force as TEC-6049. I identified and photographed it on the dump at Mexico City in 1996. Scrapped in 2001.
