The US Coast Guard received 23 ex UASF HC-131As from the USAF in 1976 as a stop gap replacement for the HU-16 pending delivery of the HU-25 Guardian. A few of these were held in storage at MASDC for spares use. 5805 (ex 52-5805) was later registered to Central Air Service as N81559 in May 1989 and sold to Starship Inc in 1996. The registration was cancelled in July 1997 as exported to Mexico but the aircraft remained in store at Avra Valley and was later scrapped. The nose survives in the Pima museum collection.

Small Air Resorts titles were carried on the other side of the fuselage. The organisers of the 1992 World Airline Historical Society convention held at Irvine, Ca., chartered this aircraft to fly a party from John Wayne Airport to Mojave for an airport tour. Shortly before departure permission to land at MHV was refused due to insufficient fire cover for the number of passengers on board, necessitating landing at PMD from where the pax, of which the photographer was one, were bussed up to MHV for their tour.
