The very first Beaver, built in 1947. Photo taken somewhere on the shore of Slocan Lake when it was under contract to the British Columbia Forest Service. It would go on to operate for 33 years until its retirement in 1980. It is now a national treasure, preserved in the Canada Aviation & Space Museum in Ottawa. In its working life it had three sets of wings and ended up with 18,233 hours on the frame.
