As far as I can find out the true identity of this airframe has never been established. It is often said to be c/n 19458 ex N3433E, but that airframe was discovered in the Basler store at Oshkosh in July 2010. It is painted to depict SC-47A 43-15732 which was destroyed when it hit high ground near Bao Lac, South Vietnam on 11th February 1962.
