C-53 in World War II (41-20133), demobbed in May 1945 and was with TWA before the end of the month (NC44783). John Conroy acquired the Three in January 1968 (N4700C) and it was flying as the Conroy Turbo-Three with two Rolls Royce Dart turboprops in 1969. Fitted with three PT-6A-45 and re-registered N23SA, it became the Tri-Turbo-Three in 1977. Here transiting through Winnipeg, a fire in the cockpit while the aircraft was being worked on at Santa Barbara, CA ended its flying days.
