Much has changed at Coal Harbour since I took this photo in 2003. Wescoast Air no longer exists, its base is gone and all the docks have been replaced.

Built for TABA (Transportes Aéreos Buenos Aires S.A.) in 1968, the airline failed before delivery and this Twin Otter was delivered to Mexico as XA-BOQ in November 1970. AirWest acquired the aircraft in 1978. Pictured after refurbishment and painted in their new color scheme, the airline would be renamed Air BC in October 1980. With occasional temporary leases to other local airlines, it remained in Air BC's fleet until 1996 when it was sold to West Coast Air Services. Next to J R S Sky Inc in 2011, it's current flying skydivers around the Eastern US as N137JR at the time of uploading.
