Originally 42-108960 and registered CF-BZI in 1956. Written off while landing on 13th May 1971 in whiteout conditions at Somerset Island, Nunavut which is a large, uninhabited island of the Arctic Archipelago. The left main gear ski dug in when the aircraft touched down ahead of the runway and slewed it sideways causing major damage. It has been preserved at Calgary since the mid-1990s and some parts from C-FIQR c/n 11876 (which had also earlier crashed, in 1977) were used in its restoration.

This Dakota was delivered to the RAF in February 1944 as FZ692 and transferred to RCAF 437 Sqdn in September 1944. Post-war it served 424 Sqdn as 12945 for Search & Rescue at CFB Trenton. After withdrawal from service by the Canadian Armed Forces in 1973 it was used for mineral and environmental surveys by Environment Canada as C-GRSB. Donated to the museum in May 2014, it has been restored to its wartime colours as used in the Normandy and Rhine Crossing landings and still flies frequently, with passenger rides available for C$275. The CWH titles are very small above the registration

This Dakota was delivered to the RAF in February 1944 as FZ692 and transferred to RCAF 437 Sqdn in September 1944. Post-war it served 424 Sqdn as 12945 for Search & Rescue at CFB Trenton. After withdrawal from service by the Canadian Armed Forces in 1973 it was used for mineral and environmental surveys by Environment Canada as C-GRSB. Donated to the museum in May 2014, it has been restored to its wartime colours as used in the Normandy and Rhine Crossing landings and still flies frequently, with passenger rides available for C$275. The CWH titles are very small above the registration
