Originally delivered as part of an Army contract to the Norwegian Air Forces' training camp Little Norway in Canada in 1940 as 115. When the Army and Navy air arms were amalgamated in 1944, the Cornell joined the new Air Force. It was transferred to Norway and given the new serial/code L-AG, the Cornells were given the type code "L" and the individual aircraft in this was "AG". Sold on the civilian market as LN-BFI in 1956 and cancelled in 1971. It was painted in this pseudo RNoAF colour scheme for static display at the 1975 air show.
