Imperial Oil's Air Transport division took delivery of this Beaver on April 6, 1950. First registered CF-IOB, it was re-registered CF-HEP in 1953 and sold to Pacific Western Airlines in December 1956. Flying with smaller operators from 1960, it moved to Sioux Lookout in 1986, first with Slate Falls Airways. The aircraft was registered to Bamaji Air in June 2003. Used seasonally, the registration lapsed in 2006 and the aircraft is pictured out of service. Put back on the register with a new engine and propeller in September 2021, it's current with Bamaji Air again at the time of uploading.
