The prototype was re-vamped as a civilian executive transport - feederliner for 10 - 29 passengers and re-designated Model 220, but orders dried up when it became too expensive without a military order. The aircraft was used as a company transport until 1965, when it was sold to Flight Safety Foundation at Phoenix, Arizona. Last seen stored with registration N4AZ
