This helicopter was always a civil machine. Initially registered N653X for test-flying, it was delivered new to Pakistan International Airlines as AP-AOB in 1963. In 1968 it was sold to BEA Helicopters in the UK and registered G-AWFX. It later returned to the USA where it was converted to 'Fire King' standard. It later became N625CK with Croman.

This S-61 was manufactured in 1968, probably as an SH-3 Sea King. It was civilianised in Sept 1992 and registered in the USA as N306V. In 1994 it went to South Africa as ZS-HGU, before returning to the US Register. It has subsequently alternated between US and Canadian registry. It was contracted for bushfire-fighting in Victoria, Australia, during the summer of 2008/9 and was based at Warrnambool. It was photographed here at the Australian International Airshow where it made a one-day appearance.
