This former VA-122 Trojan was used for weapons training (target spotting) at NAS Lemoore from 1969 until 1972. It still wears their colours and markings. It was stored at NAS Norfolk from 1972 until 1976, and at MASDC/Davis Monthan from 1976 until it was sold in 1990. Since then, it is flying as N65491. It survived an accident on 21 May 2005 when the nose landing gear collapsed on landing at Franklin Municipal Airport.
