First flew in 1967 as CF-VQI and spent over twenty years bush flying in Quebec. Joined Temsco at Ketchikan in 1989 as N19TH. Acquired in 1994 by Soloy Dual Pac Inc, where it operated as N5010Y, then N32910, acting as a testbed for the certification of a Twin Pac powerplant comprising two P&W PT-6As. Converted by Ketchum in 1997 to a Vazar Turbine Otter, N342KA. Purchased by Pro Mech Air in 2005. Sold to Liard Air in 2009 as C-GNNP. Destroyed, together with two other aircraft, in a tragic Liard hangar fire at Muncho Lake, BC, in 2011. This photo is copyright © David A.
