Air BC leased this Dash 7 from July 1983 to April 1989 as their first large regional airliner. Former De Havilland Canada development aircraft (C-GQIW-X ), it was sold to Spantax S.A., as EC-DCB in May 1978, but was returned to DHC in May 1981. Ferried to Las Vegas, NV in April 1989 for storage, it was later damaged in a hangar fire. Bought by AGES Group, an aircraft parts broker, it was parted out and scrapped.
