Photo Comment

Originally built for United Air Lines in 1953 as a Convair 340 and here operated by Farmers Union Travel Club of Denver/CO. In 1992 it became C-FKFM with Kelowna Flightcraft Air Charter. Later it went to Conair as a retardant bomber then was sold to Buffalo Airways at their Red Deer/AB base in 2022, so likely used for engine spares.
