Overview of a section of Conair's storage yard at Abbotsford. The CP-121 Tracker in front is C-FLRA, ex RCN 1559, 12159, with the latter serial still visible on the fin. Then we have C-FLQZ (ex 1555, 12155) and the third one is C-FLRB (ex 1565, 12165). These are three of about twenty Canadian Forces CP-121 Trackers struck off charge in 1990/1991 and acquired by Conair for spares shortly thereafter. All were stored here, with their Canadian markings carefully painted out. All had been broken up by 2012. The DC-6 is Tanker 43, C-GHCB.
