In late May 2007, the Toronto Aerospace Museum hosted a 60th anniversary DHC-2 Beaver homecoming and symposium in the original de Havilland Aircraft of Canada factory where the Beaver was born. Viking Aircraft flew this aircraft (recovered from the Pima Air Museum and converted to a Turbo Beaver) from Victoria to Downsview to attend the homecoming and it became the "star" of the TV documentary "The Immortal Beaver" (which can now be viewed on YouTube https://youtu.be/b2hZe9ToaEI ). It's seen here landing in Toronto harbour with the CN Tower in the background.

I finally get to meet Olivia. A Viking masterpiece. Viking Air of Victoria, British Columbia acquired this Beaver in 2005 after it had been in the Pima Air and Space Museum in a non-flyable state. It had a fictitious reg of C-KMMS on it at the time. The Beaver was dismantled and brought to Victoria for a complete rebuild and conversion to Turbine engine and registered as C-GODH and named "Olivia" after the actress Olivia de Havilland.
