This Beaver was built as a standard piston engine DHC-2 in 1959. After several accidents in the 1980s, Viking Air bought the aircraft. Viking, who own the type certificates of all De Havilland Canada aircraft except the Dash 8, converted it to a turbo Beaver during 1993 - 1996. 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.

C-47A 42-100813 passed through the Reconstruction Finance Corp (RFC) in 1945. Registered NC51793, it would be bought by Canadian Pacific Airlines July 23, 1946 and registered CF-CRX. It would be the airline's last piston airliner, in later years being used for pilot training and special events until sold October 23, 1974. Here with Harrison Airways, but still in basic CP Air colors. Later christened "Tweedsmuir", it went to Futura Aviation in 1979 before exported to the USA. As N950HA, it's been withdrawn from use since 1985, presumed scrapped when the registration was cancelled in 2011.

New colors for AirWest's Twin Otter and hangar. The airline would change its name to Air BC as it merged several smaller coastal British Colombia airlines with the same color scheme but new titles (for the Hangar, too). This Twin Otter would be written off during a hard landing at Tau, Manua Island, American Samoa on June 17, 1988 with Samoa Air.

Delivered to Trans Canada Airlines March 28, 1957, this Viscount is here in its last days with Harrison Airways. Bought January 1977 along with another Viscount (CF-TIC) and serving as a source of spares. Sold to the British Columbia Institute of Technology in June 1980 to train aviation mechanics. Replaced by a 737 in 1995, it was stored outside and eventually used by the fire department for training. In 2005, it was sold to the British Columbia Aviation Museum for $1. Barged across the Georgia Strait to Victoria airport, it has been restored in original TCA colors at the museum.
