Originally operating with Mesaba Airlines (N442MA) 1989 - 1997, this Metro next moved to Sioux Falls, SD based Air Cargo Masters. Bearskin Airlines bought the aircraft in 2006 and registered it C-GYXL In 2018 the Exchange Income Corporation (owner of Bearskin) merged the airline with another of it's subsidiaries (Perimeter Aviation). Although Bearskin Airlines no longer exists as a legal entity, the Bearskin brand of service continues to operate within the new larger Perimeter Aviation.
