Moored at its Selkirk base, but with access proving temporarily difficult due to the Red River being in flood. Built in 1943 for the USAF as 43-35481. Passed to the RCAF as HB112 but quickly sold on to the civilian market as C-FSFH. Acquired by Selkirk Air from Ontario Central Airlines in 1983. Substantially damaged at Bradburn Lake, Manitoba on 5 June 1995 when the port float separated during takeoff as the aircraft commenced its third flight of the day from a fishing camp back to Selkirk.
