Good Morning Steve,
Thanks for the note for N464KC on 24-10-23
Earlier records have 11-46002 as A5A95B, test reg N462KC
Could N464KC have been a typo ?
Regards,
Paul

Hi Paul,

Here is what I have for the 4 EMD Aircraft

11-46001 N461FT A59DE1 f/f 29 December 2014 EMD-1 VH001/1065/41273
11-46002 N464KC A5A95B f/f 02 March 2016 EMD-4 VH002/1066/41274
11-46003 N463FT A5A54F f/f 25 April 2016 EMD-3 VH003/1067/34054
11-46004 N462KC A5A1ED f/f 25 September 2015 EMD-2 VH004 1069/41275

From what I have read, 462 and 464 were to be used for AAR testing but I have only noticed 464 flying since November 2022. Seems that when they fly as BOE469 it's for AAR trials and 464 will not be far behind, or just in front.

Hope that helps.
