In 1989, Air BC leased six BAe Jetstream 31s from British Aerospace for Air Canada Connector code share feeder services in Alberta and British Columbia. This aircraft, formerly with Air Toronto, was placed with La Ronge Aviation in September 1995. Merging with Transwest Air in 2002, it would work with Latitude Air Ambulance for most of 2005 before going to Peace Air in December 2005. The aircraft was damaged enough to be written off when it touched down short of the runway at Fort St John, BC on January 9, 2007.

Air BC leased this Dash 7 from De Havilland Canada from May 1985 to March 1988. Pictured in previous owner Henson Airlines' Piedmont Commuter colors with an Air BC Tail, the aircraft would get full Air BC colors on the fuselage before return to DHC. Later operated by Paradise Island Airlines 1989 - 93 as N780MG, it was sold to AirKenya Express (5Y-BMP) in 1997. Transferred to subsidiary Regional Air Services (5H-BMP) of Tanzania 2008 - 11, it is current back with AirKenya at the time of uploading.

Former West Coast Air Services Beaver with new Air BC titles. The Jim Pattison Group amalgamated ten local float operators in 1980 to form Air BC. C-FOSP is current with Harbour Air at the time of uploading, upgraded with an extended aft cabin and larger windows replacing the classic Beaver porthole.

Pictured several months after delivery (June 12) and like the other Air BC BAe-146s, C-FBAF would move to Air Canada Regional / Jazz when when Air Canada connectors merged in 2002. Retired in 2005, it was sold to Tronosjet Maintenance Inc who own or manage a fleet of approximately 20 BAe 146s. Stored in Halifax (and registered C-GCUP in late 2008) until placed with Minera San Cristobal, a mining company in Bolivia. The aircraft was registered CP-2634 in January 2010.

This Grumman Goose was photographed at Stewart Airport (CZST) while operating scheduled service to Prince Rupert. In the early 1980s, Jim Pattison Industries bought and merged several coastal airlines to form Air BC, including Trans-Provincial Airlines (TPA) which flew C-FEFN in this yellow colour scheme. When Air BC added new Dash 7 routes, most of its seaplane services (except DHC-6 routes) were transferred TPA, which became separate airline again. Steward is at the head of the Portland Canal which forms part of the border with SE Alaska. It is the northernmost coastal community in BC.

This third Dash 7 was used by the manufacturer for testing and certification flying from May 1977 to May 1978 as C-GQIW-X before delivery to Spantax as EC-DCB. Returned to DHC in May 1981, the aircraft was leased by Air BC in July 1981 as they rapidly expanded their IFR operations. It was returned to De Havilland in April 1989 as the airline was adding the BAe-146 to the fleet. Stored at Las Vegas, it was damaged in a hangar fire in March 1990. The aircraft was later parted out and scrapped.

The third of three Twin Otters built for TABA (Transportes Aéreos Buenos Aires S.A.) not delivered due the airline's financial difficulties, it went instead to Aeronaves de Mexico in December 1968. Sold in February 1978 to a broker in the USA, the aircraft entered West Coast Airline's fleet in May. Merged into Air West to form Air BC in 1980, the aircraft was sold to Ashe Aircraft Enterprises in 1992. Many leases followed before it was registered in the USA as N186AL in 1995. The aircraft is the center of a legal dispute and has been stored since 2009.
