This extraordinary beast, used for mineral surveys world-wide, still going strong after 55 years. Flew as Dakota IV G-AMNV with various companies till going to Africa in 1965. Fitted with magnetometer tail and wingtip housings at Toronto in 1982 and converted to turbo by Basler ten years later This photo is copyright © Richard Vandervord, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
