Cessna 180H, CF-UIG, was imported to Canada in 1966 and has operated on floats most of its career. It was part of Terrace & Prince Rupert-based Trans-Provincial Airlines' (TPA) fleet of 24 aircraft in 1970 and probably joined the fleet in the 1960s. The aircraft remained with TPA though its purchase and sale by Jim Pattison Industries until the airline went bankrupt in 1993. After five subsequent owners in British Columbia including Fort Langley Air, it's been based in La Ronge, Saskachewan since November 2020.

This Cessna 180H was imported new to Canada in 1972 and was operated by in Newfoundland in the early 1980s (and perhaps earlier) until sold by Caribou Leasing Ltd to F B M Holdings Ltd in Terrace, British Columbia in May 1986. It was photographed wearing A Frame Logging Ltd. titles at the Seal Cove seaplane base in Prince Rupert, BC in January 26, 1987. It was last operated in Canada by Trans-Provincial in Prince Rupert before being cancelled from the CCAR in August 1994. Seal Cove was the town's main air gateway until the Digby Island airport opened in 1959.

Tyee Airways Ltd. acquired this Cessna 180 seaplane CF-UFD, new from Vancouver Cessna dealer Staron Flights Ltd. on March 17, 1966 and operated it through November 1977 when it was sold to K.D. Brodacki in Edmonton, Alberta. It was photographed at the Tyee dock at the Bayshore Inn at the foot of Cardero Street in Vancouver. Tyee Airways was owned by Al Campbell and based in Porpoise Bay in Sechelt, BC, which is about 50 km northwest of Vancouver on the Sunshine Coast. Tyee utilized the public seaplane dock in Sechelt and had a maintenance base on East Sechelt Road. Exported to USA, April 1982.
