CF-CUE once was the first aircraft landing on the runway of what is now the Yellowknife airport. She flew with the USAAF for just three years before becoming civil and was with Canadian Pacific from January 1947 until moving on to the Department of Transport in February 1956. There, she was retired in October 1990, to be taken on by Buffalo in 1992. This photo is copyright © Erik Sleutelberg, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
