Originally delivered to the USAAF in 1944, post war this aircraft was sold to Trans Pacific airlines and then Aloha Airlines before being converted for Ag work in Hong Kong in 1961. It worked as a "topdresser" in New Zealand from 1961 to 1981 and its last such flight was on 20 Jan 1981. It was then restored to military configuration by the "Silverstream Aviation Society" and painted in RNZAF colours, (for whom it never operated), and placed on display at Ohakea airbase. It was removed from display in 1998 and sold, arriving at Gisborne in May 2000. (With thanks to Nigel Hitchman).

The 'Tacos' (New Mexico Air National Guard) are performing a nice formation approach for Rwy 25L. What a nice change in between all those Southwest 737s.
