In morning sunshine, awaiting the day's duties at Transwest Air's base on Lac La Ronge. Delivered new to the Union of Burma Air Force in 1958 as UB651. Converted to Vazar turbine power by Aerolite Industries at Vancouver in 1990 and then served with Athabaska Airways at La Ronge. Joined the fleet of the newly formed Transwest Air in 2000.
