As far as I can determine, this was the second 1980s C-46 for Ilford Riverton and they changed name to Air Manitoba about this time. Imported about a month earlier and here still without titles (doubtless while they sorted things out), it has been fully painted in a livery that would set the trend for later additions. The cheat-line is heavily influenced by the design of former operator of this aircraft, Ortner Air Service, where it was N74171.
