World War II Veteran originally 42-96724, this Commando came to Canada in 1987 for Air Manitoba. It was written off while with Buffalo Airways during an emergency landing at Déline, NT. After shutting down one engine due to an oil leak, the aircraft was intentionally landed gear up and slid off the end of the runway.
