Air BC operated six Dash 7s into the 90s. This one was was delivered new to Golden West Airlines on December 23, 1980 as N702GW then imported for Air BC March 19, 1984. It is pictured with short lived CP Air Commuter titles near the tail. The agreement ended when Pacific Western Airlines bought CP Air and formed Canadian Airlines. Air Canada purchased 85% of Air BC and joined the Air Canada Connectors. Sold in 1991 as Air BC standardized on the Dash 8s for operations, C-FJPI went to Voyageur Airways. In 1997, the aircraft was extensively modified for geophysical survey and was recently retired and cancelled from the Canadian register on March 14, 2018.
