On March 5, 1957 two aeronautical engineers and a test pilot from NACA High-Speed Flight Station took the airplane to participate in a Gunnery Operations program at Nellis Air Force Base, Nevada. When the program was completed the aircraft returned for other assignments to NACA, at Edwards, California.
