Stored in the yard area behind the Buffalo Airways hangar at Yellowknife. Carrying the bombing number "280", it is still in the "carrots and peas" colours of its former operator, the Provincial Government of Newfoundland and Labrador, but with the "Buffalo" title added to denote its new owner.

After retirement from USAF service, converted to a firebomber by Aero Union in 1976. Sold on in 1981 to Conifair, who reconfigured the aircraft as an anti-budworm sprayer. Bought by Buffalo in 1996 and reverted to a firebombing role for a few more years. Seen here in store at Red Deer as Tanker, "56" but with overwing spray bars fitted again.

C-GBYU was one of two CL-215 based at Yellowknife during the 2007 fire season, at that time being operated by Buffalo Airways on behalf of the Northwest Territories Government. This aircraft was built in 1985 and has first been operated by Conair Aviation before joining Buffalo Airways . It appears that this airframe has been modified to CL-415 standard in early 2021 by Viking Air, the owner of the type certificate. The modification mainly consists of new and more powerful turbine engines, plus structural changes on the wing tips and elevator / horizontal stabilizer.

Parked on the ramp in front of the Buffalo Airways hangar awaiting its next flight. Only a few weeks later, this aircraft was written off beyond repair making an emergency landing off Yellowknife's main runway, after a go around following an engine fire and with a prop which would not properly feather.

The "Ice Pilots" logo beneath the cockpit windows marks involvement in the TV series of the same name which dramatised the exploits of Buffalo Airways in the locally extreme winter weather. The name "Summer Wages", with its dollar bill, is of longer standing. Joined Buffalo Airways in 1980, previously in military service with the RAF and then the RCAF as KG602, latterly 12932.

Post war C-54 45-0535 was retired to AMARC in 1971 after US Air Force service. Declared surplus, the aircraft was bought by Dross Metals and registered N3303F in 1975. It returned to flying in 1976 with Aero Union after fire bomber conversion. Registered to Conifair Aviation as C-GBNV in 1981, it was used mainly for spraying Quebec forests to control damage from Spruce budworms. Buffalo Airways bought the aircraft in 1996 and it remains current (at the time of uploading), but has not flown for some time.
