Originally USAAF 44-84634, it was re-registered as N351BD in July 2003 and as N551JP by February 2016. Tragically this aircraft was destroyed, and its 2 occupants killed, when it crashed about 6 miles southwest of Maricopa, AZ., on 5th February 2016. In April 2020 its remains were being advertised as a rebuild project but no further information is known.
