Built in Jul 1942 for the RAF as Ventura II AJ311, but immediately taken on charge by the USAAF as an RB-34 and used for static tests re lightning strikes. Struck off charge Sep 1946. Loaned to Pueblo Museum by 1986 and incorrectly painted as "AF311" in dual nationality markings. Serial later corrected to AJ311.
