The aircraft was built as USAAF C-60A in 1943 but was later civilianised and served as an executive transport for a number of US companies before being converted to photo-mapping configuration in the early 1970s and exported to Finland as OH-MAP and later OH-SIR. It is now exhibited in the Norwegian Armed Forces Aircraft Collection at Oslo Gardermoen Airport, painted as "G-AGIH" one of the Norwegian crewed Lodestars that made clandestine flights between Scotland and Sweden during WWII.

US Army Air Force C-60A Lodestar 42-55899 was quickly sold after World War II via the Reconstruction Finance Corporation. Variously registered NC17092, N8008 and N600L in 1957 after Westinghouse Electric bought the aircraft in 1956. It was converted to a Learstar II in 1958. Re-registered N608L when bought by The Lincoln National Life in 1964. Later with United Founders Life insurance company, a series of owners followed until it was impounded for drug smuggling in 1975. Pictured with Vintage Aircraft Sales, the registration was kept current until 2013, but the eventual fate is unknown.

At Mangere aerodrome where it crashed on May 13, 1945. It had been stolen by a teenage apprentice who had been rejected for flight training by the RNZAF. He survived the crash but ZK-AHU was burnt out. Mangere, by then a GA airport, was closed in 1961 to make way for today's Auckland International.
