This former Nigerian Air Force and Nigerian Airways F-27 was bought by Conair November 1985. They developed a tanker conversion for the F-27, but only two were converted. Conair later decided on the Convair 580 to be their main medium turbo-prop. C-GSFS was lost September 4, 1989 fighting a fire in France with the Securité Civile.
