There were two Mitchells that carried serial N5-131. The first was ferried across the Pacific by the RAF Ferry Command, arriving on 18 April 1942. The USAAF immediately took it and sent it to Papua New Guinea, where it was flying USAAF missions out of Port Moresby. This photo however shows the second aircraft to carry N5-131. It is ex USAAF 41-12916 (often incorrectly quoted as ex 41-12936), and it served with the NEI-AF as N5-131 from Aug 1942 until Jul 1947, when it was reserialled M-331.
