Seen at what was then Nairobi's Eastleigh Airport. Airwork's Vikings flew numerous passenger and government charters to points in Africa as well as the Middle and Far East in the late 1940s and early 1950s. From 1952 a scheduled service was established from Blackbushe to Nairobi routing via Malta, Benghazi, Wadi Halfa, Khartoum, Juba and Entebee a 3 day journey at a cost of £98! Formerly EI-ADI with Aer Lingus, the aircraft was allocated WZ356 for trooping flights whilst with Airwork and sold by them to Air Safaris in April 1960. WFU and broken up at Hurn in 1962.

The second Tutor prototype and the only CL-41R built. The aircraft has a CF-104 nose grafted on to demonstrate the proposed use of the type to train crews with CF-104/F-104G radar and avionics, a role which was eventually given to a trio of modified C-47s. Retired in 1969 and believed to be stored with the Reynolds Alberta Museum at Wetaskiwin at time of upload.
