Conair Aviation flown by Ralph Bolton

This tail section had been lying for years in the same yard, that was however cleaned out in May 2016. It was still visible how the paint was burned off by the scorching hangar fire that destroyed the aircraft.

Two wrecks dumped near the Air Spray hangar. The aircraft on the right is C-GHCC (Tanker 31), which was destroyed in a hangar fire at Red Deer on 16 Oct 2000. Only this rear fuselage survived. The one on the left is CF-EZX "The Lost Invader", which crashlanded in a field near Grande Prairie, AB on 29 June 2000.

Delivered as USAAF 44-35893. Was lost in a hangar fire at Red Deer, Alberta 16 Oct 2000.

Originally 44-35893 this Invader went on to the civil registry June 1958 as N4812E. Bought by the Rock Island Oil & Refining Co for a Monarch 26 conversion that never happened. In 1974 Conair brought it into Canada as C-GHCC for fire fighting. Sold to Air Spray in 1982, it was lost in a hangar fire October 16, 2000 at Red Deer. Sections of the aircraft remain in the field north of Air Spray's hangar there.
