Sold to Kelowna Flightcraft in Canada as C-FKFM in June 1992, it later served with AllCanada Express until acquired by Conair in September 2000 and converted to fire bomber configuration, becoming Air Tanker 54. When the CV580 fire bombers were withdrawn at the end of the 2022 fire season it was bought by Buffalo Airways, reportedly for its engines.
