First flown as G-51-265 and registered as HP-551 in June 1971. To Colombia with Empressa Narinense de Aviación as HK-1241 in August 1971, Sold to Líneas Aereas La Urraca in January 1972 and with SAETA - Servicios Aéreos del Meta y Territorios Nacionales by 1988. Short lived airline Caribena Colombia bought the aircraft in 1992 to operate alongside a pair of BN2A-3 Trislanders but all were soon withdrawn at Villavicencio. The Trislanders lingered on for many years but the fate of the Islander is uncertain. This photo is copyright © Tim Spearman, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
