Delivered September 3, 1941, USAAF C-57 41-23166 was sold post war as N60200 to Gannett Co (owner of several US newspapers). The aircraft was converted to a Learstar before delivery to Lockport Felt Co (N711L) in 1957. Coming to Canada for Turnbull Elevator in 1962, it was registered CF-CEC. Flying for several other owners until stored at Montreal in 1971, the C of A expired in 1973. By 1988 the aircraft was donated to the Reynolds-Alberta Museum in Wetaskiwin, AB. Last moved to Trenton, ON for the National Air Force Museum of Canada where parts were used for the restoration of Hudson FK466.
