This Beaver was brought back to Canada in 1973 after 16 years with the US Army as 56-0385. Between 1976 and 2014, the aircraft flew with many small northern British Colombia operators (most likely with Telegraph Creek Air Services when pictured, but unable to confirm) before it was sold to Kenmore Air. Refurbished for a private owner, it was delivered in 2016 as N188JG.

It arrived at Antwerp Airport (Belgium) at the end of Apr 1974 in Hilair livery, after being acquired by Delta Air Transport (possibly as a source for spares). The following month it was damaged in a ground collision when it was hit by an SIAI Marchetti SF.260. At some point it was transported to a children's play area at Bokrijk, Genk, Belgium. Since broken up. Looking at the kids' antics, Health and Safety was obviously not an issue in those days!

This F-13 is one of a batch of seven seized as war reparations. On display in the Inter-war Years Hall at this super museum.

This airframe is actually a composite of parts from six aircraft. Many sections and parts are also being scratch-built using original blueprints. Airframe is identified as 44-83722 since that plane supplied the bulk of the parts, but they are adopting another parts bird, 44-85813, as their s/n. Other aircraft used are: 44-83316, 44-83525, 44-85505, 44-85734.
