Photo Comment

Backed by Queen Elizabeth, C-FHAJ began life in 1961 on delivery to the Union of Burma Air Force as UB-657 as one of nine shipped to Burma in crates. Six were repatriated to Canada in 1989 and this one was purchased by the Aros Parachute Club of Sweden after conversion to Vazar turbine, becoming SE-KOX. Next registered N406H to Wipaire in 2005, it joined Harbour Air next year as floatplane C-FHAH in their yellow-trimmed colour scheme. In 2007 it became 9H-AFA with Harbour Air (Malta) to operate between Valetta and Gozo, then shipped home by sea to rejoin the main fleet in 2012, now as C-FHAJ
