The stowed cargo behind the open freight doors appeared to be a very substantial chest freezer, or at least a large refrigeration unit of some kind - its bottom right hand corner can just be seen beneath the wing's trailing edge. Written off in an accident at North Spirit Lake, Ontario in 2000. I last saw its remains a few years later in the scrap area of Kuby's Yard, Kenora, Ontario.

Delivered to the RCAF in 1951 as serial 1428 then bought by the B.C. Government in 1960 as above. After retirement in 1973 it spent five years as an instructional airframe at Selkirk College, BC. Then made airworthy and continued its flying career until it crashed on takeoff from Red Lake (CYRL) in November 1992 while carrying eight full 45 gallon drums. Aircraft was 500lb overweight with CofG beyond aft limit. Unable to climb, it settled to the ground. Supposedly it overturned, but here it looks remarkably unscathed, so who knows! Deleted from the register in 2018 having previously been scrapped.
