Grumman G-21A Goose, C-FUAZ was delivered new to the US Coast Guard in February 1940 as V185 and was sold by the US government in November 1946 as NC95400 and later N95400. The aircraft was registered to three different owners in the Bahamas between 1963-1965, then imported to Canada in December 1965 by Northwest Industries (NWI) which was large MRO company based in Edmonton, owned by CAE. In May 1966, NWI sold the Goose to BC Airlines, a subsidiary, and the aircraft was registered C-FUAZ. It joined the Trans-Provincial fleet in April 1969.
