This CH-53 had a varied career, being assigned to the US Navy, US Marines, NASA, the FAA (with civilian reg. N39), and finally back to the US Navy. Due to permanent modifications by NASA it could not be put back in CH-53A configuration hence the NCH-53A designation. On loan to the museum from the National Naval Aviation Museum since 1999.
