An immaculate Millardair DC-3. Originally Air Force 43-15161 that was not retired until June 22, 1960. Sold to Aero American Corp (N87644), it was brought to Canada by Carl Millard in November 1978. Sold in the USA an N117MV in 1985 as C-117s were bought to upgrade the fleet. Eventually going to the Fuerza Aerea Colombiana (FAC 1635), it was last seen derelict at Bogotá still with the Millardair cheat line.

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

Only a few weeks later, this aircraft was written off beyond repair making an emergency landing off Yellowknife's main runway, after a go around following an engine fire and with a prop which would not properly feather.

Note that the titles of its former operator, Trans-Canada Airlines, can just be discerned on the fuselage top. For many years this aircraft hauled parachutists out of Lodi, CA., but then was withdrawn from use and acted as a billboard for the airport café there. However in October 2020 the aircraft was acquired by Preferred Airparts LLC and trucked back to their Kidron, OH., base.

Photographed at what was then known as Avra Valley Airport, since renamed Marana Regional Airport. After wartime service with the RAF as KG619 the aircraft passed to the Spanish Air Force as T.3-2 until being sold off as G-BGCE in 1978, and then going to the USA as N37529. In the 1980s it was of a number of old propliners based at McAllen, TX., and used to smuggle consumer goods into Mexico until its luck ran out and it was impounded there in January 1990. It was last reported as a derelict hulk at Oaxaca - Xoxocotlan International Airport registered as XA-ION.

Photographed at what was then known as Avra Valley Airport, since renamed Marana Regional Airport. After wartime service with the RAF as KG619 the aircraft passed to the Spanish Air Force as T.3-2 until being sold off as G-BGCE in 1978, and then going to the USA as N37529. In the 1980s it was of a number of old propliners based at McAllen, TX., and used to smuggle consumer goods into Mexico until its luck ran out and it was impounded there in January 1990. It was last reported as a derelict hulk at Oaxaca - Xoxocotlan International Airport registered as XA-ION.
