Another one the Internet has got wrong. It was imported from the USA in 1960 according to the CCAR. So far- so good. Where the problem comes is other sources say in was exported to the USA in 1963 as N4575C whereas the CCAR shows it cancelled in 1983 which is correct. Paint scheme is light blue/dark blue with a gold or yellow trim.

Ontario Central Airlines began as a charter airline connecting the wilderness of Ontario with the rest of Canada. Growing from two used Fairchild 82 float planes to a scheduled airline with DC-3s among the other bush aircraft like the Noorduyn Norseman and De Havilland Otters. Merging with Ilford Riverton Airways in 1991, the airline was eventually re-named Air Manitoba. This DC-3 was in the fleet between 1974 to 1993.
