A Convair 340 that was delivered to Pan American World Airways in May 1954, this aircraft would go to LACSA Costa Rica a year later. North Central Airlines would buy it in November 1960 and convert the airliner to a Convair 580 in 1968. Next to Gulf Air Transport in March 1986 before coming to Canada with Kelowna Flightcraft in November 1988. Pictured flying for Purolator Courier, it is still current at the time of uploading.
