After retirement, this deHavilland built Tracker which was later converted to Firecat was donated to the Canadian Museum of Flight in 2012. Its paint is fading quite noticeably but more disturbing is the vandalism it has suffered. The windshield is smashed and other damage can be seen. It has recently been moved to a safer location. Eventually, it and the collection will be re-located to a museum in Pitt Meadows, BC but that will not be soon.

In 2012 the Conair Group donated their Tanker #64 to the Canadian Museum of Flight. It is seen here on its last flight, making a nice water drop before landing at her final resting place at the museum in Langley, BC. This Tracker started life on 1 April 1958 as 1539 of the Canadian Navy. It was transferred to the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources on 28 Sep 1972 as CF-OPU, and flew for them as Tanker #54 until acquired by Conair in 1980. They converted it to Firecat (conversion number 007) in 1981, and as Tanker #64 it would serve them well for 31 years! Photo by: Mike Luedey / Yellow Drum Productions.
