Built in 1981 as one of the last Buffalos, this airframe carried test registration C-GDAU before being delivered to the Royal Oman Police Air Wing in June of 1981 (becoming A4O-CI). By June 1994 however, it was back in Canada as C-FSKM where it was "civilized" by Aero Support and afterwards went to Shuttle Air Cargo in Kenya as 5Y-GAA (December 1995 till February 2004). Flew for Arctic Sunwest between 2004 and 2012. Sold to Summit Air still keeping the C-FASY reg till around 2015 before being registered in Malawi as 7Q-STA, flying relief work missions for the ICRC in South Sudan. Stored by now?
