This DHC-3 Otter has spent most of its commercial life flying in Quebec since 1971. It was seen in April 2016 at Montréal / Laval - Saint-François airport and seaplane base, which is a private facility owned by Clement Contant and his son Simon. It doesn't appear on any aviation charts, probably because of the high voltage electric power lines crossing the property! In early 2000, C-FAZX was converted to an Orenda Orenda V8 piston engine, in 2012 to a TRACE piston engine and in March 2018 back to a R-1340 radial engine for Air Tunilik.
