After a career with the 455th FTS, it was assigned N5175U with EG&G (known as Edgerton, Germeshausen, and Grier, Inc., a United States national defense contractor). In Aug'89, the T-43A was transferred to the 58th ALS/86th FW at Ramstein AB (Germany) for VIP services. From Jan'94 it was stored at Phoenix, went to San Antonio (TX) late '97 and was assigned to the 310th AS ('HW'), later on with the 6th ARW. The T-43A was stored at AMARC as AA TH0003 from 28 Sep'01 onwards and eventually scrapped by Aug'18 by HVF West.
