Delivered to the USAF in May 1954 as a YC-131C, powered by Allison YT-56 turboprops. Converted to civil standards similar but not identical to the Convair 580 (it retained the nonstandard YC-131C engine nacelles and exhausts), and unofficially designated Convair 770. Later operated by several corporate owners. To C-GKFY with Kelowna Flightcraft in June 1981.

Another "canoe" shot, which from this location was difficult. I could hear the tower clear them for takeoff, and hear them coming, but could never be certain when or where they would pop up over the bushes.
