Bell 214B-1, C-FZVT, has been registered to Black Tusk Helicopters of Squamish, BC since May 1997. The helicopter previously operated in the United States as N9941K and in Norway as LN-OSG with Helikopter Service AS and Lufttransport AS (a HS company). Black Tusk acquired a new Kaman K-Max C-FZVM in March 2021 for logging so its three Bell 214B-1s could be dedicated to firefighting, but the K-Max crashed in the ocean while logging near Killam Bay, BC on October 4, 2021. The family-owned company also operates two Bell 206B's, a Airbus AS350B2 and a new K-Max, C-FZVB, delivered in March 2022
