Sadly this aircraft was abandoned in Nigeria during the 1970s. Similar fates befell quite a few survey planes when they outlived their usefulness.

In an era when exec-jets were still pretty cramped inside, many businesses still flew comfy converted airliner types. This one belonged to the Lauhoff Grain Co. of Illinois. Registration cancelled in January 1980 on export as XA-JII.

Ilford-Riverton Airways' Beech C-45 sitting on the launching dolly. Bearing in mind the time of year, it has probably just landed on the in-field grass to be picked up by a crane and sat on the dolly. On 6 October 1973 the left wing spar failed while on approach to a water landing at Thompson/MB.

Brand new here, but not imported until 1973 when it became CF-GCF. Many years later I caught up with it as such at its Victoria/BC base. In 2010 it was found to have extensive corrosion and was last seen sitting forlornly at Campbell River/BC.
