This ex Voyageur Airways DHC-7 with registration C-GGUL, operated in many UN missions. After a mission while on the the return journey to Canada, the aircraft encountered technical problems, and was stranded at Eindhoven Air Base in the Netherlands. Voyageur was unable to fix the problem, they removed the engines and left it at the airbase. In 2019 the airbase put it up for auction on a website and sold it to the highest bidder, who unexpectedly became the new owner of a DHC-7. He is the owner of a home-improvement center in the town of Veen, 50km north of the airport. This photo is copyright © Streep, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
