With all hatches and doors wide open, moored at the base of its owners, Blue Water Aviation Services, on the Winnipeg River at Silver Falls. An ex-Indian Air Force machine. After flying for a time with a PZL piston engine, converted to Walter turbine power in 2004. Destroyed in a sadly fatal accident in October 2019, when the starboard wing detached while turning final for Family Lake, Manitoba and the aircraft struck the water.
