1950 built Beaver spent some time in Finland before coming back to Canada. When it was based near Prince George it made dolly takeoffs which were quite interesting to see. A truck hooked up to the dolly and quickly drove down the runway and when the Beaver reached flying speed it left the dolly and was away. On one particular dolly takeoff, the engine on the Beaver quit just as it left the dolly and it made a very rough landing and suffered a lot of damage. Now the Beaver is located in Alberta.
