Found Brothers Aircraft resumed production of the FBA-2 after almost 30 years after the company went bankrupt in Toronto in the late 1960s. A new factory was at Parry Sound Municipal Airport and the aircraft marketed as the Bush Hawk. The company went bankrupt again after the 2008 Financial Crisis and the production rights and tooling was sold to PAC in New Zealand which was purchased by a Chinese investor. This aircraft as based in Fort Frances (CYA6) in 2021.
