This Viscount was delivered to Trans Canada Airlines March 28, 1957. Withdrawn April 1974, it was placed with Harrison Airways in Vancouver January 1977. Sold to the Pacific Vocational Institute in 1980 for training. Retired by the school in 1995, the aircraft was used for fire fighter training until sold to the British Columbia Aviation Museum for one dollar. Transferred to Victoria, the airliner has undergone a restoration to it's original color scheme for display.
