First flight was in 1981, delivered new to Widerøes Flyveselskap as the 2nd Dash 7 on 4 May 1981. Returned to DeHavilland Canada as C-FYMK on 5 July 1996, and flew on as TG-JAY for AVCOM from 11 November 1996 until broken up some years later. Scanned from original slide, and as I shot the photo I was not aware of the Braathens vehicle coming fast from the right angle, so a bit lucky. My first photo of a Dash 7.

Built for Widerøe in 1981 as LN-WFI and seen shortly after being sold, via De Havilland Canada, to AVCOM in November 1996. Sold to CAAMS Leasing of Rutherfordton, NC in 2009 and stored. Scrapped there in 2017.
