Built for USAAF as C-47B 44-76256. To Central Air Transport Corp as XT-722 in 1945. Later registered in the U.S. as N8329C, N4663V, and finally N99H. On 19 February 1971 during a takeoff from C.R.C. Crose airport near Houston, Texas a dragging brake resulted in a ground loop, causing substantial damage to the airframe. The a/c was written off, with the registration cancelled in September 1974.
