Photo Comment

"Hot Rod" on the Buffalo ramp. Aircraft written off during a forced landing due fuel exhaustion in June 1994, and hulk moved to Hay River. Another Buffalo DC-3 subsequently used the same registration (c/n 13028) and was on display at the Alberta Aviation Museum in Canadian Air Force colors from 2004 until late 2013. It is now in storage with Buffalo Air at Red Deer.
