The precursor of what eventually became the US Coast Guard was established in 1790 when Secretary of the Treasury
Alexander Hamilton created a force of revenue cutters to enforce laws against smuggling, to protect shipping from pirates, and to prevent
contraband from entering the United States. Over the next few years, other government organizations were established which performed
additional maritime tasks such as providing lighthouses and other navigational aids as well as for maintaining search and rescue services
for mishaps at sea. Programs were also established that provided inspection operations and training programs in support of safer operations
at sea. For a long time these tasks were performed by several separate and distinct government organizations, but they were all formally
combined to form the United States Coast Guard in 1915.
The Coast Guard has been shuffled between several different government organizations during its career. When the Coast Guard was first officially formed in 1915, it was formally a part of the Treasury Department. However, during World Wars I and II the Coast Guard was temporarily transferred to the Department of the Navy for the duration of these conflicts. The Coast Guard was transferred to the newly-established Department of Transportation in April of 1967. In March of 2003, the Coast Guard was formally transferred from the Department of Transportation to the newly-created Department of Homeland Security.
The Coast Guard was relatively late in acquiring its own aircraft, and did not receive its first aircraft until the 1920s. The first Coast Guard aircraft was a Vought UO-1, borrowed in 1925 from the Navy for a year. It was used to fly patrols to combat rum-running during Prohibition. On March 3, 1926, the Coast Guard was given permission to purchase three Loening OL-5s and two Vought UO-4s, the first planes that the Coast Guard could call their own. More aircraft were soon to follow in the years 1927-1934. These first series of aircraft were given one- and two-digit serial numbers assigned in groups.
The second series of Coast Guard aircraft (1934-1936) were given three-digit numbers assigned in groups, with the first digit indicating the type of aircraft. Those serials beginning with a 1 were amphibians, those beginning with 2 were flying boats, those beginning with 3 were land-based aircraft, and those beginning with 4 were convertible designs. At this time, the aircraft originally ordered in the first series were reserialled with numbers in the second series.
On October 13, 1936, all Coast Guard aircraft ever acquired (including those already withdrawn from service or written off) were reserialled with a three-digit number prefixed with a V. On December 28, 1945, the V prefix was deleted. From Jan 1, 1951 onwards, a 1 prefix was added in front of the three-digit serial number. Beginning in the 1980s, serials were assigned in blocks for each type, usually with gaps between adjacent blocks.
For a brief time during the 1930s, Coast Guard seaplanes were assigned names, much like ships. This usage became so common that many official Coast Guard communications, and many press releases and newspaper stories, referred to the aircraft by name only. From 1933 to 1936 the aircraft were all named for stars. Their names appeared on each side of the nose of the aircraft and served as an accurate means of identification for the planes.
The Coast Guard acquired a lot of its aircraft as transfers from the Air Force or the Navy. Nearly all of the aircraft that were transferred to the Coast Guard from the US Navy or from the US Air Force served with the Coast Guard under their original serial numbers, not being allocated a separate USCG serial number. However, the system was not always consistent, and sometimes aircraft transferred from the Navy or the Air Force were indeed assigned separate Coast Guard serials. Some aircraft types (e. g. the CASA C-212, the MH-65A, and the MH-90 used truncated construction numbers as their USCG serials, and displayed a truncated version of the MSN to produce a four-digit serial number. This system can be quite confusing, and unlike the USAF or the US Navy, the Coast Guard serial numbers are not necessarily in the same sequence as they were ordered into service.

raft with three persons onboard. As the survivors were hoisted, Ensign McFetridge carefully monitored
the seas, and her quick reaction on several occasions kept the aircraft from striking the water.
Demonstrating great composure under pressure, during the hoists, Ensign McFetridge provided
communications between the Pilot and crew when the intercom system was disabled by the driving rain.
Relieving the exhausted Aircraft Commander, she skillfully flew the aircraft, while making arrangements
for medical assistance for the survivors. Ensign McFetridge's actions, aeronautical skill, and valor were
instrumental in the rescue of three victims. Her courage, judgment and devotion to duty are most heartily
commended and are in keeping with the highest traditions of the United States Coast Guard.

firefighting equipment on board to the scene despite darkness,rain showers, and strong turbulent winds.
Reaching the burning ship, Commander Morgan positioned the helicopter over the small stern area of the heavily
pitching and rolling PRINSENDAM as desperately needed firefighting equipment and the Air Station Damage
Control Officer were lowered. Commander Morgan then maneuvered the helicopter about the ship while the Co-Pilot
illuminated for the Damage Control Officer as he attempted to find his way through debris, around a dangerously
hanging lifeboat, past the burning lounge area and to the bridge where he conferred with the Captain as to the
extent of the damage. After the helicopter was refueled in Yakutat it was flown back to the scene. The T/V WILLIAMSBURG
had arrived and was attempting to retrieve the survivors. Due to the tanker's high sides and the widely scattered life boats,
the retrieval of survivors was extremely difficult. Despite the fatigue of the aircrew, Commander Morgan directed hoist
operations and the transfer of survivors to WILLIAMSBURG. Commander Morgan was awarded the Distinguished Flying
Cross for his innovative actions, expert aeronautical skill and valor throughout this mission aided in the successful

Ditched off Hawaii on delivery flight to Philippines Jun 18, 1991. During cruise flight the aircraft lost
oil pressure in the number 2 engine. Flight could not be sustained using the remaining engine. According to
the pilot, the remaining engine would overheat when power was applied. The crew descended to just above
the water and tried to fly the aircraft in ground effect, but to no avail. They elected to ditch the
aircraft. During the landing, the aircraft received substantial damage and was almost immediately flooded,
causing the aircraft to sink. The crew escaped, but did not have time to retrieve emergency gear.
They were rescued after about 20 hours in the water. Evidence revealed that the pilot did not have a
pilot's certificate. No evidence could be found to indicate that the pilot had any experience in the
accident aircraft or with any sea plane. Since the aircraft sank, a cause for the engine problems
could not be determined.

Adventures Inc, Wilmington DE Oct 23, 2007. Crashed on takeoff, Fort Pierce-St Lucie FL Nov 5, 2009.
On Nov 5, 2009, the aircraft was substantially damaged during a forced landing, following a total loss
of power in the left engine shortly after takeoff from St. Lucie County International Airport (FPR), Ft. Pierce, FL.
The intended destination for the flight was Okeechobee County Airport (OBE), Okeechobee, FL. The two pilots
received no injuries and one additional crew member received minor injuries. An eyewitness reported seeing
the airplane depart from runway 32 and become airborne near the intersection of taxiway "C7." While the
witness observed the landing gear begin to retract, the left engine began emitting several "loud pops" then
white colored smoke began to discharge from the exhaust. The witness reported hearing an increase in
engine noise and observed the airplane begin a left turn. The airplane then impacted terrain, went
through an airport boundary fence, and came to rest near an airport service road. In an interview with the
Safety Board the captain reported that while on the runway preparing for takeoff, they advanced the power
levers to achieve 30 inches of manifold pressure, checked all the engine gauges, then advanced the power
levers to 40 inches of manifold pressure, released the brakes, and "performed a normal takeoff."
During the initial climb, the captain commanded the gear to be retracted, shortly after the gear handle
was placed in the "UP" position; he heard a loud "bang followed by three to four smaller bangs."
The captain commanded the checklist to be run for an engine failure in flight. The first officer confirmed
that the left engine was the affected engine and immediately began feathering the propeller. Once the
propeller had been feathered, the captain confirmed the action by looking outside and noticing the
propeller in the feather position. According to the first officer the airspeed had "stagnated around
95 knots" and he increased the power levers to 52 inches of manifold pressure. The airplane still
did not accelerate and was turning slightly to the left, the airplane continued to turn slightly
to the left as though they were "on the backside of the power curve." Unable to achieve an airspeed of
greater than 95? to 96 knots indicated, the crew confirmed that the gear and flaps were in the retracted
or "UP" position; however, the captain was unable to center the slip/skid indicator completely.
During the attempt to return to the airport for an emergency landing the airplane was unable to
maintain altitude and the captain attempted to land on an airport perimeter road, impacting an airport
fence and a sand berm in the process. After the airplane came to rest, the captain shut down the engines,
fuel pumps, and other items required to secure the airplane. Both engines had approximately 3 hours since overhaul.

Apr 1967 aircraft was sold on April 10 to Cal-Nat Airways, Grass Valley, CA, where it became derelict and engineless

Nov 1969 Hawkins and Powers of Greybull, WY, purchased her on November 25 and converted the aircraft to a fire bomber.
Modifications included installation of Wright R-2600 engines. H&P numbers were 'A25', 'B25' and '125'
(depending on the region it was used);
Aug 1975 while on a flight from fire bombing in Alaska to another fire in Oregon, flying on one engine due to low
fuel, a landing was attempted at Port Hardy B.C. on August 8. During the landing the remaining engine quit
due to fuel exhaustion. The aircraft landed very hard breaking the left landing gear off, damaging the nose
wheel left wing tip and flap. The aircraft then continued on through a chain link fence into a salt water bay.
On August 11 the aircraft was pulled ashore by a bulldozer and stored on airport property next to a hanger.
The aircraft was then sold, by the insurance company, to Airplane Supply Centre of Vancouver B.C. who, in turn,
sold it to the Canadian Museum of Flight and Transportation in Richmond B.C.;
1981 The C.M.F.T. was unable to transport the aircraft to Richmond and the aircraft stayed at Port Hardy for six
years where it was heavily vandalized. Under pressure, from the airport, to move the aircraft, the C.M.F.T.
sold it to a concern from Michigan who planned to restore it. In order to move it, the aircraft was cut,
with a diamond saw, from top to bottom ahead of and behind the wings and outboard of the wing attachment
joints. The vertical and horizontal tail surfaces were removed properly. The engines were removed but the
blade tips were cut off to fit the flat bed trailer to keep the width under the maximum allowable;
Apr 1986 N6813D was given, as an anonymous gift, to the Yankee Air Force, Ypisilanti, MI and delivered in October
of that year.
1995 The restoration continues with the intention of achieving the USCG configuration as a static display.
