First flown in 1967, became N8351Y and was assigned to NASA Dryden's Research Operations Division for Program Support on 5 June 1967. The Piper was among other missions, used for validating remotely piloted research vehicles in addition to research into General Aviation aircraft. It was withdrawn from use and popped up as an instructional airframe at Reedley (CA) Aviation Maintenance Technology Dept at Reedley College on 19 May 1995.
