Originally number four in an order of twelve DHC-3 Otters for the Ghana Air Force (G303), delivered May 8, 1961. Withdrawn in 1973, this Otter made it's way from Africa to Mexico to fly in the mountains and have a crash in the Canadian Northwest Territories. Rebuilt and photographed here on it's way to Alaska where it has flown ever since. It received a Texas Turbine conversion in 2006 and is current as N337AK at the time of uploading.
