Delivered to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police on February 25, 1959, CF-MPX was sold in 1979 as the RCMP looked to modernize it's fleet. Pictured with Harbour Air (June 1985 - June 1986), one of the ten operators that flew it 1979 - 2010. Sold in the USA as N93PC, it was converted to a Texas Turbine Otter and flew for Rediske Air, in Alaska. On July 7, 2013, the aircraft tragically stalled on take-off at Soldotna Airport, AK and burned. The aircraft was later determined to be outside of the weight and center of gravity limits.
