Built as 42-23972 and delivered to the RCAF in July 1943, this Dakota was eventually retired from the Canadian Air Force when withdrawn in 1989. Sold to Basler Airlines in 1991, the aircraft underwent the company's turbo conversion in 1994. The airliner is registered to Oiland LLC at the time of uploading.
