I think I may have found N1095A. I've searched for it for years, decades really, and the other day I stumbled across some information saying that it had changed owners many times over the years, along with registration numbers which made it very difficult to track down. Ironically it is based out of Allentown Pennsylvania which is right down the road from me.

Call me Mr.Thicky, but are you saying the copter in the pic is TC's? The article says nothing about that. What evidence have you found, would you mind sharing
that information so we might enjoy the fruits of your search as well?
I for one would get a kick out of it if you found the McCoy.

Just an aside, but regarding vehicles in classic TV shows, the train on Wild Wild West was the same one used on Petticoat Junction, Iron Horse, The Big Valley,
Gunsmoke and the beloved in Europe cult Western Cimmaron Strip that lasted only one season, but its 90 minute episodes are as good as most
studio B or even better film Westerns turned out in the 40's and 50's. The one with Richard Boone as a charismatic hard bitten cavalry sergeant unable to
cope with changing times and a modern West is outstanding, titled "The Roarer".
It's also metaphor for those dreading retirement or the guy on a assembly line whose product is no longer needed or been eclipsed in a changing world.
Just might be the best role of Boone's career, with much quotable dialogue. On You Tube.

I'm not finished researching yet. This is just a lead. I wish I could find serial numbers. That would help immensely. Changing registration numbers multiple times over the years hasn't made it easy.
