Pictured in the new Airwest color scheme, the airline would change their name to Air BC in 1980 as several coastal British Columbia airlines merged together. This Twin Otter would fly on with several other BC airlines until coming to an untimely end in July 2007. It was destroyed when it crashed on takeoff from the gravel airstrip at Muncho Lake, BC and was consumed by a post crash fire.
