After rolled out in early 1969, several sales of this Twin Otter to the USA fell through and the aircraft was delivered to Aeronaves de Mayab as XA-BOL December 19, 1969. West Coast Air Services bought it in September 1979, but it never entered service. It was sold to Contact Airways in April 1980 and photographed just before the titles were painted out and the tail logo became a red circle. While flying on floats with Maldivian Air Taxi as 8Q-MAG, the aircraft was written off (with no injuries) when it struck the water after a photo shoot at the Halaveli Island Resort, Maldives June 2, 2009.

In 2000, Air Canada took over operations of Canadian Airlines and merged the airlines in 2001. To standardize the fleet, Canadian's DC-10s were disposed of quickly and the 737s went a couple of years later. C-GKCP is photographed in short term storage but would be re-activated for Air Canada's low fair Zip Air. When Zip was shut down, this 737 went to Canadian North.

Bought by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police in 2006, it was painted in these retro colors for the 70th anniversary of the RCMP Air Division in 2007. It was sold in 2016.

In 1984, when the CF-101B was retiring from the Canadian Air Force, each Voodoo squadron would have one aircraft painted in a special retirement/RCAF 60th Anniversary color scheme. 409 Squadron resurrected the very popular Hawk One colors for theirs. Originally USAF 57-429, 101057 was taken on strength in 1971 as Canada traded 56 older CF-101s for 66 new(er) ones. Retired July 12,1984, Hawk One became a gate guardian at CFB Comox.

Built for Cubana, but the sale was never completed. The aircraft was leased to Tennessee Gas Transmission Corporation. Several operators later, singer Ray Charles bought the Viscount in January 1977 for touring and using his birthday of September 23rd, registered it N923RC. Damaged beyond repair after it hydro-planed off the end of the runway without injuries at Bloomington, Indiana on October 19, 1985. The hulk was sold to the Go Group for parts.
