This ex Voyageur Airways DHC-7 with registration C-GGUL, operated in many UN missions. After a mission while on the the return journey to Canada, the aircraft encountered technical problems, and was stranded at Eindhoven Air Base in the Netherlands. Voyageur was unable to fix the problem, they removed the engines and left it at the airbase. In 2019 the airbase put it up for auction on a website and sold it to the highest bidder, who unexpectedly became the new owner of a DHC-7. He is the owner of a home-improvement center in the town of Veen, 50km north of the airport.

The Dutch government needed additional transport capability for their troops during their long-lasting deployment to Afghanistan. So they leased this specially modified Dash 7 from the Canadian company Voyageur Airways. The aircraft was modified with self protection measures (chaff, flare, radar warning receivers) so it could transport personnel and freight more safely between the Dutch deployment locations over the war-torn Afghanistan.
