| David Tallichet bought N3174G in 1970 or 1971 and it was ferried over the hills from Orange County to Chino. This view shows Frank Pine running the engines at Orange County on June 12, 1971, prior to its delivery. The airplane already looked pretty rough. (J.D. Davis) |
| N3174G was placed into storage at Chino and it went downhill quickly. This 1981 view shows the airplane in the remains of its Catch-22 paint scheme. (Scott Thompson) |
| In 1982, Tallichet and the March Field Museum concluded an agreement that brought several of Tallichet's airplanes to nearby March Air Force Base for display at the base museum. N3174G was disassembled and trucked over and then it was cleaned up and prepped for display. This 1982 view shows the airplane awaiting new paint, with the Catch-22 paint stripped away and the remnants of its USAF markings now evident. (Scott Thompson) |
| This is the first scheme applied for museum display, fading a bit after just a few years in the smog and heat of the Riverside area. It was donated to the museum at about this time. (Scott Thompson) |
| In the late 1990s, the airplane was painted once again and it is seen here at the new location of the base museum, across the main runway after the air force base became an air reserve base. (Scott Thompson) |
