Photo Comment

Delivered in May 1957, this Beaver spent it's career in British Columbia, Alberta and the Yukon. The floatplane met it's end on December 3, 1990 when it broke the dock mooring during a storm and drifted out to the middle of Nootka Sound. Sinking in a 1,000 ft of water, it remains at the bottom of the sound.
