This aircraft made the last ever B-50 flight in December 1980 when it was flown from Tucson to the museum. It had been retired from active service in 1965, and was restored to flying condition for the one time flight, hence the "Flight of the Phoenix" name. This slide shows the markings originally on the a/c when acquired by the museum. It has since been repainted somewhat differently, including the Flight of the Phoenix colors.

Is thought to be really 57-1330 which was stored at Davis-Monthan AFB with park code FB056 in 1976, left in 1982 and went to Mojave, CA for restoration. It is possible it may be 57-1314 which was towed to Mojave in 1978 after an accident at Edwards AFB. It was later repainted as 71312.
