Docked at the base of its owner, Blue Water Aviation Services, of Silver Falls, Manitoba, and reflecting the sparkle of the flood waters of the Winnipeg River on its lower fuselage. This is its third incarnation with a different power plant. Started life in 1960, Pratt and Whitney piston-powered, as UB-656 with the Union of Burma Air Force. Had a PZL piston engine installed in 2002 and entered service with Blue Water Aviation, who had it further converted to Walter turbine power over the winter of 2009 /2010.
