Photo Comment

Operated by Seair Alaska (formerly Sea Airmotive) from 1978 until the company collapsed in August 1986, just before this picture was taken. Kelowna Flightcraft bought it the following year and it later went to Colombia, flying, initially as HK-3559X, and later as HK-3559 with Aerovias Especiales del Carga (AVESCA) and Aerocar. Seized by the authorities at Bogota in 1995 it was transferred to the Colombian Army in 1996 as EJC-121
