First operated by Western Airlines from May 1946 - February 1956, this DC-4 would next fly with Alaska Airlines. Brought to Canada By Eldorado Mining and Refining Limited in 1957, it was used by their aviation department until sold to Aero Trades Western in July 1980. The aircraft was written off on December 2, 1981 at Spence Bay, NU, landing short of the runway and shearing off the left main landing gear.
