Paramaribo's smaller airport, Zorg en Hoop opened in 1952. PZ-TAG was registered in January 1958. It was one of two Aero Commanders registered to the Surinaamse Luchtvaart Maatschappij (SLM). Both crashed in 1959. PZ-TAG flew into a hill near the indigenous village of Paloemeu on 6 October due to engine trouble in fog. The two fatalities were SLM co-founder Ronald Kappel and Vincent Fajks, a Polish pilot who married a Surinamese woman. The Paloemeu airstrip (SMPA) which they helped constructing was named after Fajks. Photo from: Nationaal Archief (Netherlands)

Delivered to Suriname in 1982, involved in little accidents in SAF service (Sep'86 a ground collision with truck and in Nov'93 it made a heavy landing). Since late 1993 the SAF tried to repair the Islander, with succes by Jan'94. But it was decided after a few flights to withdraw the aircraft. After several years of inactivity, the BN-2 was given a major overhaul in 2008. Its first flight took place in Sep'08, but due to a fuel leakage it was grounded again since.

This Islander was possibly delivered to Suriname in 1982 and is reported withdrawn from use since April 1995 (but that status was possibly alreay some years before). 004 was earmarked for restoration from 2008, but this never took place and its condition got worse. The aircraft is here seen engineless at its homebase Zorg en Hoop.

The aircraft has travelled all over the world: started with Schreiner Airways as 5N-AKP in 1975 and was send as such to Aero Contractors of Nigeria from Jan'76. It then became PH-STJ with Schreiner Airways in the Netherlands from Dec'86. It returned as 5N-AKP again to Nigeria in Jul'87, followed as TJ-SAC with Schreiner Airways Cameroon from Feb'01 and TJ-SAC with CHC Cameroonfrom Mar'06. It became N476R with SNJ Resources Inc. from Oct'08, arrived with Winair in Mar'09 as PJ-WIR and was bought by its current owner as such in May'10. Later that year it became PZ-TBN.

This bi-plane was most probably stored and not airworthy when it was pictured in 2007. The aircraft was offered for sale on the Internet and was last seen as such in 2010. Five years later, in 2015 only the fuselage was seen in a hangar at Zorg en Hoop, while its wings were used as bar-counter and overhang in the restaurant of the local flying school.
