Paint scheme was yellow and brown separated by a white stripe. Became CF-TAG with Transair later in the month, then leased to Aer Turas as EI-AVJ for one year from November 1971. Then to SAFE Air as ZK-SAF in October 1973 and wrecked when a main landing gear failed at Wellington (NZWN) on 1 April 1990. (Having moved to Winnipeg two weeks prior, the last thing I expected to see was an ex-BEA Argosy.)

In 1970 local airline Transair bought three of these Armstong-Whitworth Argosy aircraft to replace the DC-4s running freight up north. Being designed for European service they were a little short on range for the far north and so it was leased to Aer Turas from November 1971 to November 1972. In October 1973 it went to SAFE Air as ZK-SAF and was wrecked on 4 January 1990 when the LH gear collapsed.
