Started out as a 31-55A Senior Skyrocket c/n 3 in 1946, and seen here as such. In October 1955 it was upgraded to a 31-55B (fuselage extension and larger cabin door) by giving it the fuselage of c/n 32, thus essentially becoming another airframe. The aircraft was sold in the US in 1972 as N32BE. Note the "Fort William" subtitles. In January 1970 the cities of Fort William and Port Arthur merged and became the city of Thunder Bay. This is where Superior Airways was based from its creation in 1945 until it was merged into Austin Airways on 1 Jan 1982. In 2003 a new Superior Airways was formed, with no ties to the old one.
