44-28866 was modified off the production line as a TB-25 and remained in the USA for crew training.. Later it was used as a utility transport with the USAF until struck off strength in 1957. Registered N5277V in 1958, the aircraft went on lease in Canada during 1960 and was converted to a fire bomber. In 1964, it was purchased and registered CF-OND, continuing to work fighting fires. Returning to the USA as NN225AJ and later N744CG, it has been restored as a warbird. The bomber has been associated with the Champaign Aviation Museum since 2008.
