Looking like a quite time in front of West Coast Air Services hangar, there were a lot of things happening behind the scenes for this Otter. In previous owner Trans North Turbo Air colors, the aircraft was registered to Tyee Airways in April 1979. Pictured after West Coast took over Tyee, Air BC would take over West Coast before the year was out. Tyee's owner sued to keep his airline operating separately, but C-FSUB would be sold to Air North in June 1980 to fly in the Yukon.

This GippsAero GA8 Airvan was shipped to North America and was displayed at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh in July 2005 and the Abbotsford International Airshow in August 2005. It's seen here inside the Aeroflight Industries hangar at Vancouver Airport.

This hangar was constructed by Canadian Pacific Air Lines in the late 1950s to maintain its fleet of Bristol Britannia airliners. It was later used by Pacific Western Airlines, AirBC and the aviation campus of the British Columbia Institute of Technology, which was the tenant when this photo was taken in August 2008. The wartime Boeing Aircraft of Canada PBY Catalina factory was once located to the south (left) of this hangar until demolished in the mid-1970s. Boeing's wartime PBY flight test hangar located to the east is still used by companies like Pacific Coastal and Aeroflite/Harbour Air.
