History of N134Y

N134Y, BUNO 140908, is a T34B Beechcraft Mentor built for the U.S. Navy
in 1956. The aircraft use prior to 1969 is not currently known. The earliest records we have show the aircraft being overhauled in April of 1969 at NPRO in Brownsville. The 70's found the aircraft in a variety of duty stations, including NAS Pensacola and NAS Corpus Christi. CNATRA (the Navy's air training command) was the custodian of the aircraft, and as such it was moved around quite a bit. VT-1 in Aug, Sept and OCT of 1973 and again in May of 1974 and May of 1975 held the aircraft. Time was also spent with NRD OKLA in the 70's.
