I've seen it worked on from time to time, but when you ask when is it going to fly, the answer is usually, "one of these days".

Originally built for United Air Lines in 1953 as a Convair 340 and here operated by Farmers Union Travel Club of Denver/CO. In 1992 it became C-FKFM with Kelowna Flightcraft Air Charter. Later it went to Conair as a retardant bomber then was sold to Buffalo Airways at their Red Deer/AB base in 2022, so likely used for engine spares.
