Photo Comment

Flying the first two years with several commuter airlines in the USA as N4714 and N242GW, this Twin Otter was bought by Bannock Aerospace in 1969 and registered CF-AKM. Time Air operated it until Air West acquired the aircraft in 1977. Merged into Air BC, the it was damaged in a training accident in June 1987 and was sold to Ashe Aircraft Enterprises for re-build. Many leases followed and the registration changed to C-FASQ in 2005. It's current on the Canadian register with Robinaircraft Holdings at the time of uploading.
