If only I had known they would manage to get this beauty ready for a ferry flight across the lake that same evening. She departed to Yellowknife some five hours after I left. With 27,673 hours on the clock, she was put up for sale after the 2015 fire season and still is in 2020.

The pride taken by 'Buffalo Joe' and his company in the operation of this propliner is evident from the nose art. The "First around the World" logo was adopted by the Douglas Aircraft Company after a group of Douglas World Cruisers had successfully circumnavigated the globe - in 1924.

The famous sole surviving swingtail DC-6, bought by Buffalo in 2013 as a Bank of Utah trustee in order to keep the US registration. She seems to never have flown since arriving here and even still be sitting in the same spot in 2020.

Fitting to the low construction number, this veteran has accumulated more than 70,000 flying hours as a military and civil transport. She has been moving troops, passengers and all sorts of cargo over deserts, arctic and everything in between. At the time of uploading, Buffalo's former fleet number 1 remains for sale.

A somewhat closer look at C-FBAM, still in NASA colours and with Aero Union logo. The weight of only the number 1 engine is not sufficient to keep it from resting on its tail.

C-FIQM was considerably damaged while landing on an ice strip in March 1990, operated by Kenn Borek Air. They were not permitted to leave her to sink at the remote location, to protect the environment. She was recovered to Calgary, acquired by Joe McBryan and repaired in Tucson. In storage as shown for less than a year at the photo date, missing the #1 and #3 engines. For sale with 41,709.5 hours total time.

Joe had this C-46 adorned with celebrities from the type's heydays on this side. The other side features early Disney figures and they all remained, even after TPO was restored to replace TXW after 2015. No better shot possible from this side at the time of my visit.

With Buffalo since January 1999 when acquired from Air Alberta, and sold to the Calgary Flying Club in October 2016. Cancelled next March though, so that probably ended operations for this 1958 Travel Air.

Harsh backlight, but it's a moving Electra. Built in 1961 and had its share of operators. Retired by Atlantic Airlines (whose colours it still wears) in March 2013 and taken on by Buffalo the next month.

Had the same career as Birddog 101, number 102 being taken on charge by the Canadian Department of Transport in March 1966 and going to Buffalo in April 2000. It seems it had been sitting in the exacte same spot all Winter. The Buffalo titles are hidden behind the wing in this view.

Delivered to the USAAF as 44-61071, put into storage in India after the war, then flew with operators from Venezuela, Panama and the Dominican Republic from 1955 until withdrawal from use in 1976. Resurrected to fly with several Canadian airlines and with Buffalo since 2001. Its belly-landing in Déline on September 25, 2015 was no mean feat as the crew managed to get a crippled freighter onto a gravel airstrip without navaids, in solid IFR weather.

70 years old here and going strong. AVO, with its half lower case registration, started out as 44-77846 with the USAAF and became civil with Capitol Airways in 1961 as N9891Z. Was leased to Lufthansa as such for five years, hence the crane that is still on the nose. To Canada in 1988 for Air Manitoba and with Buffalo since 1995. Seriously damaged during taxi in 2005 but rebuilt and meanwhile still active at 75.
