Pictured heading out for a fire suppression mission, the aircraft has been owned by Conair since December 2002.

HKF, along with KFL and KFB were grounded during the worst wildfire season in British Columbia history due to smoke. Even though it was mid morning it seemed like night time. The next day, the smoke had lifted enough so that they could return to actioning the many fires burning in the area.
