The last Otter produced and it was delivered in 1967. Converted to Walter turbine in 2002 and exported as N725TH in 2013. Tragedy struck on 4 September 2022. Soon after take-off from Friday Harbor on Orcas Island/WA it dived out of control into the sea with the loss of all on board. Preliminary evidence indicates failure of the elevator spar.
