RCAF CF-188A was marked "1971-2001 30 years 1 AMS" and carried the 416sq Lynx squadron marking on the inner side of the vertical tails. The 1 Air Maintenance Squadron (AMS) was formed in 1971 at the foot of the Black Forest along the Rhine River in Germany at Canadian Forces Base Söllingen. 188720 is preserved at the Musee de la Defence Aerienne at Bagotville (Canada) since June 2016.
