Unfortunately, no BuNo is known of this Sea Stallion assigned to Marine Heavy Helicopter Squadron (HMH) 363. The squadron is normally using YZ as a tailcode, but that one is not painted on its usual spot at the tailsection. Barely visible on the tailboom is the BuNo that possibly ends at 10 (one zero)

A Frog of the US Navy during an overshoot at MCAS El Toro (CA). The CH-46D was based at nearby NAS North Island (CA) and its pilot was clearly showing interest what that guy with a zoom lens was doing on that road. The Helicopter Combat Support Squadron (HC) 3 'Pack Rats' Sea Knight was moved for storage to AMARC in 18 July 2002 and got inventory 1J019 assigned. By January 2010, it was sadly scrapped by HVF West at Tucson.

The aircraft served VFA-161 from the start of its career (NM-401) and was transferred to the Marines with VMFA-531 (EC-01) and VMFA-323 (WS-01, as pictured). It was modiffied at NAS North Island (CA) in early 1993 to F/A-18+ and continued with VMFA-314 (VW-12) and returned to the Navy with VFA-125 (NJ-357), and VFA-97 (NH-202, NH-200 and later as NH-300). In January 2008, the Hornet was stored at China Lake and assigned to the Weapons Survivability Laboratory which is no good news for the life of the aircraft...
