After spending several years in the jungles of Nicaragua after an accident, the remains of this Otter were recovered and sold as scrap. It was, however, rebuilt in Seattle in 1982 and registered N8510T. Registered to Viking Air as C-GTIL in 2007, the aircraft was converted to turbine power. Viking had purchased the rights to the Cox turbine design and finished the engineering to certify the conversion. The aircraft re-assumed the registration N8510T in 2013.
