EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, a Convair JC-131B, specifically O-53-7789 (MSN 241), is shown at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base with a single Solar T41 auxiliary power unit (APU) mounted in an underwing pylon-pod. The JC-131B was originally disposed of to the Military Aircraft Storage and Disposition Center (MASDC) at Davis-Monthan Air Base in Arizona, where it was sold and placed on the civil registry as N1360D and transformed into a North American T-28B Trojan, bearing the Bu Aer No. 137671 and MSN 200-34. The T-28B was initially assigned to the United States Marine Corps and stationed at MCAS Quantico, Virginia, later transferred to NAS Whiting Field, Florida, and struck off charge on December 11, 1971. Subsequently, it was taken under the US Air Force's wing and converted to a T-28D-10, which was then assigned to NAS Pensacola, Florida, and struck off charge on December 11, 1971. The T-28D-10 was subsequently transferred to the Military Assistance Program (MAP) and delivered to the Royal Thai Air Force, where it served as B.JF13-109/15 and was struck off charge on August 14, 1984. The aircraft was later preserved and put on display at Radio Station 015 in Chiang Rai, Thailand, and then transferred to Tango Squadron at Chiang Mai International Airport in 1991. This photograph captures a significant moment in the history of this versatile military aircraft, which underwent various transformations and assignments throughout its service life.
