Drifting quietly towards the seaplane moorings in Tofino Harbour. Built in 1952 and began its career in the Yukon as CF-GCY of Whitehorse Flying Services Ltd. After flying with more than a dozen different operators, mainly in British Colombia, joined Tofino Airlines in 1986/87, by this time re-registered as C-FGCY. Put up for sale in 2020. Now operated by Sunshine Coast Air which has its main base at Sechelt Inlet on BC's Sunshine Coast.
