In 2015 this Expeditor was sold by Vancouver Island Air and in June/July 2015 it was ferried on floats from Campbell River to the Pairi Daiza Gardens & Zoo theme park near the town of Brugelette, Belgium. Its flying days are over. It is the end of an era now as it is the last of the several Beech 18's that once operated at Campbell River. It was replaced with a turbine DHC-3 Otter.
