Photo Comment

Victoria based. Shortly after this photo date it landed on a lake in the Queen Charlotte Islands and an engine caught fire. It was extinguished, but only just. The aircraft was now marooned on the lake so a Sikorsky S-64 was sent to lift it out of the lake and onto an ocean-going barge so that it could be brought home for repair.
