Taking the opposite route of many classic propliners, this DC-6 (and sister ship C-GKUG) started as an airliner with Western Airlines in 1957. Bought by the USAF 1965 and converted to C-118A 65-12816, it was leased to Chile under MDAP as FAC 985 in 1967. Returning to the USA in 1982, it was added to Conair's fleet in April and converted to a tanker. Sold in 2000 to Tatonduk Outfitters Ltd (Everts Air Cargo) as N60759, the aircraft was moved to their storage yard in Fairbanks, AK in 2002 where it remains, now registered N511CE.

Built in 1998, this Ecureuil was one of the 1st of the version B3 and only the second to enter service with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police in July of 1998. A total of eight AS350B3's have so far been delivered to the RCMP, with six remaining in service at the time of upload. Unfortunately, C-FMPG shown here crashed on January 17, 2012 at Cultus Lake, near Chilliwack in BC, killing the pilot who was the only person on board. Cause of the accident is believed to be loss of engine power due to snow / ice ingestion during take-off.
