Drifting back to its Chimo Air Service dock at Howey Bay, on Red Lake. Delivered in 1958 to the US Army as 58-1688. Saw active service in Vietnam, sustaining enemy gunfire damage in 1968. Converted to turbine power with a Walter engine at Kelowna in 2004. This photo is copyright © David A. Montgomery, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
