Photo Comment

The second of the three Turbo Tradewinds converted and was done by the Province of British Columbia using an American Turbine Engine Company kit. Sold to Keewatin Air in 1982, it was later damaged in a hangar fire. Deemed too costly to repair, the airplane was donated to the British Columbia Aviation Museum and returned to Victoria, BC, where it was originally converted.
