Salvaged from Ballale Island in 1968. Restored to fly by Bob Diemert with a Wright R-2600 radial engine instead of the original. On November 22, 1969 he took off from Friendship Airfield on its first flight but it had not been registered or cleared. In anticipation of the flight, the Canadian Department Of Transport (DOT) had officers on the ground at the airport to arrest Bob when he landed. Instead, he flew about 20 miles to land at RCAF Station Macdonald near Portage la Prairie! Other sources say it is a D3A2, 3178. Photo by Fred Guthrie.
