Whitehorse based Aerokon Aviation bought this Otter in April 1988 and flew it untitled with a color scheme that went back to it's time with the British Columbia government (1965 - 83). The aircraft crashed on take-off at Pelly Crossing airport, YT on May 29, 1990. With a full load of drill equipment, and one passenger, the Otter settled into trees when the flaps were retracted. The pilot and passenger survived with burns, but the aircraft was destroyed by post crash fire. DHC-3 C-FODW was brought in by the airline as a replacement.
