The 1980s were still a time of big radial engines in Winnipeg. Local carriers like Ilford Riverton / Air Manitoba and Aero Trades Western had DC-3s, DC-4s, C-46s and a PBY kept busy flying north. CF-FNC was acquired by Ilford Riverton in 1982 and sold by Air Manitoba in 1990. It returned to Alaska with Everts Air Fuel as N1837M where it is still current at the time of uploading.

First stop of a three-leg cargo flight [Winnipeg - Island Lake - God's River - Winnipeg] which I had the great pleasure of flying jump seat on. I spent a total of four hours and nine minutes in the air on this magnificent aeroplane.

Still had 37M on the nose from previous times as N1837M. As it was, it went to Everts Air Fuel in Sep 90 taking up its original US civil registration N1837M again. Seen still operating as such 29 Dec 2020, just over 75 years old.

C-47 42-92651 was delivered to the RAF as KG440 in February 1944. Returned to the US Air Force in July 1946, the transport became CF-GHL the same month. Registered to Ontario Central Airlines in 1974, it carried through name changes and a merger until it was sold to Air North in 1993 before returning to the USA in 1998 as N54AA. Sadly, the aircraft crashed while operating a freight flight for Caribbean Air on July 20, 2000. After losing an engine after take-off at Nassau, Bahamas, it failed to maintain altitude and crashed in a pine forest trying to return to the airport.

Registered to Ontario Central Airlines in 1974, it carried through name changes and a merger until it was sold to Air North in 1993 before returning to the USA in 1998 as N54AA. Sadly, the aircraft crashed while operating a freight flight for Caribbean Air on July 20, 2000. After losing an engine after take-off at Nassau, Bahamas, it failed to maintain altitude and crashed in a pine forest trying to return to the airport.
