Delivered to Eastern Air Lines in October 1957 it served until sold to California Air Motive in May 1965. In 1967 it was leased to Overseas National Airways but in 1968 returned to CAM and was earmarked for sale to Transair Sweden as SE-ERF, but the deal fell through and in the early 1970s it was briefly operated by the American Sportsman and Gordon Cooper Travel Clubs. In 1974 it was bought by William Dempsay/Central Air Services who sold it to Kinney Air Tankers in January 1981 and converted into an air tanker, but it was burnt out whilst parked at Glendive, MT., in May 1982.
