'People standing on the dock at the fish plant in Leaf Rapids, Manitoba.' This does not seem to be the CKA3 seaplane location. The fish plant was built in 1972, whereas the Beaver was built in 1951 and served with La Ronge Aviation Services from February 1969 until July 1979, when it sank in Michael Lake, Saskatchewan. It suffered further damage during its extraction by helicopter. The wreck was sold to Allen Airways, Sioux Lookout, Ontario, but destroyed by fire on 30 April 1980.
