This aircraft will be more familiar to many older enthusiasts as Forbes Magazine's N60FM "Capitalist Tool", but at the time of the photograph it was leased to the US Department of Energy. In February 1984 it was registered N30EG and from May 1998 to April 2005 it was parked with the Mid-Atlantic Air Museum at Reading, PA., until February 2006 when it was sold to Canada as C-GSKJ with the Province of Saskatchewan and converted as a fire bomber. However it saw little service as it was written off in a fatal crash during a training detail at La Ronge, SK. in May 2006.

San Diego in the old days. The old terminal stood on the north side of the airport. This early CV-240 was delivered in June 1948 and it must be still fairly new here, given the NC registration. Photo from: San Diego Air & Space Museum
