Increasingly in need of some TLC, this Argus is one of 20 Mk.IIs purchased by the RCAF in 1958 to follow on from 13 Mk.1s. It flew with 415 Maritime Patrol 'Swordfish' Sqdn at RCAF Summerside in Prince Edward Island, and carries the unit's distinctive swordfish marking on its tail. When the squadron was moved in 1988 to CFB Greenwood in Nova Scotia, the Argus was replaced by the Lockheed CP-140 Aurora.
