Now a permanent fixture out front of the KF Center for Excellence here in Kelowna. All that is missing is to have a CV5800 or a 737-200 here.

C/N 002, this CV-580 was the main fixture out front the KF Center in Kelowna until the Conair one showed up. Nice to see this early example so well preserved. Some great history here, and well worth the visit!

Although this Convair was officialy registered as N404TC since March 2001 it still sports its former registration N43944. The aircraft was probably used as a spares source at the time and was broken up during 2009.

The aircraft was retired to MASDC in July 1980, its last USN duty being with the Naval Air Reserve Unit Naval Air Station North Island, hence the NARU NORIS markings. It was civilianised as N3982Y July 1983 and converted to CV580 configuration becoming C-FKFS with Kelowna Flightcraft. Selected as the prototype for the CV5800 stretch conversion it was re-registered N5800, making its first flight as such in November 1991. After testing was completed, it reverted to C-FKFS and operated for Kelowna until June 1998 when was sold as N381FL with Contract Air Cargo with whom it still serves.

Built for Hawaiian Airlines in 1953 but instead it was retained by Convair for prototype conversion to Allison turboprop. It flew as a test bed with a USAF serial number until 1960 when it was acquired by the FAA as N454. It then flew for a succession of non-airline operators until acquired by Kelowna Flightcraft in 1981. At some point it was upgraded to comply with the PacAero Engineering designed STC used on all subsequent CV-580 aircraft.
