Built in 1943 as USAAF C-47A 42-108821 c/n 12058 but transferred to the US Navy as R4D-5 BuNo 17119. In 1952 it was rebuilt as an R4D-8 (C-117D from 1962) "Super DC-3" with a the new c/n 43378, and retired to the MASDC "Boneyard" at Tucson in 1976. It was registered N886M to the Lee County Health Dept. in 1978 and exported to the Dominican Republic as HI-477, later HI-477CA, in 1986. In April 1989 it was seized by US Customs at Isla Grande Airport, San Juan, PR., and was damaged there by Hurricane Hugo in September that year; its derelict remains were last reported there in 2003.

Ex USAAF 42-93007. On D-Day 6th June 1944 whilst serving with the 86th Troop Carrier Squadron, 437th Troop Carrier Group USAAF, this aircraft towed a glider from RAF Ramsbury carrying men and equipment to a landing zone near Sainte-Mère-Église, Normandy. It was retired to the MASDC "boneyard" at Tucson in April 1964, and bought by Embry Riddle University in Miami, FL., as N72420. In 1973 it was acquired by the Lee County Mosquito Control District as a spares source to support the operation of their DC-3 fleet, and lapsed into dereliction at their Buckingham Field base.

It's ironic that that this aircraft was painted to depict a military C-47, wearing the faux serial "0795405", displayed outside the 305th Bomb Group Restaurant at Sarasota-Bradenton Airport, FL., as it had no military history being delivered to United Air Lines in 1937 and serving with them until 1954. It was later displayed outside the Air Transport Command Restaurant at New Castle County Airport, DE., but lapsed into dereliction there following its closure and was later donated to the Massey Air Museum at Massey Aerodrome, MD., where it has now been restored to static display condition.
