On charter to the Houston Aeros hockey team which was a World Hockey Association franchise. On start-up to leave, an engine caught fire. After firing the extinguisher bottles, it was taxied out for take-off, during which the engine re-ignited. This time AFF had to put it out. After lengthy repairs to a fire-damaged engine nacelle, it scooted off back over the border while on a test flight. Withdrawn at Dayton Beach/FL in 1994.

Imported from Ariana Afghan Airlines (ex YA-AAC) and still in their basic livery, this DC-3 operated with Lambair until sold to Perimeter Airlines in October 1982. I worked with a WW-II veteran who flew these with Ariana on Hadj flights during the 1950s. He said the worst part was the hill tribesmen setting up braziers in the aisle to cook lunch.

After being withdrawn, it was sold as N92BF in August 1991 then appropriately re-registered as N12907. On 26 September 2000 it was DBR in a gear collapse at Charlotte/NC and relocated to the Carolinas Aviation Museum, conveniently on site. In 2019 the museum had to close so current status in 2020 uncertain.

Looking like a Piper Apache 235, this is in fact a very early (1960) Piper Aztec. The ugly stumpy nose was extended to more graceful proportions for the 1961 Aztec B and subsequent, but reintroduced for the Apache 235 which first appeared in 1962. Very confusing!

In 1970 local airline Transair bought three of these Armstong-Whitworth Argosy aircraft to replace the DC-4s running freight up north. Being designed for European service they were a little short on range for the far north and so it was leased to Aer Turas from November 1971 to November 1972. In October 1973 it went to SAFE Air as ZK-SAF and was wrecked on 4 January 1990 when the LH gear collapsed.

Built in 1952 as Dove 6A registration N1536V then converted to Riley Dove in 1966. On 20 May 1975 it ditched in Lake Michigan after departure from Meigs Field/IL (of Microsoft Flight Simulator Version 1.0 fame) after running out of fuel. A swept fin was a part of the full Riley Turbo Executive 400 conversion, but I think the original, as here on this partial Dove 2 conversion, looks better.

Built in 1940 as a DST with RH entry door for United Airlines, this historic aircraft has been languishing dismantled at Red Deer/AB for many years. However it was registered to Hay River Air Services on 22 March 2018, so who knows?

This PBY-5 is wrongly identified as c/n 9757 in the CCAR. It was in the RCAF as tail 9757 with c/n 21986 and when captured here was owned by Can-Air Services of Edmonton. In 1986 it was wrecked during a water landing at Maui/HI.
