Photo Comment

Cessna 180H, CF-UIG, was imported to Canada in 1966 and has operated on floats most of its career. It was part of Terrace & Prince Rupert-based Trans-Provincial Airlines' (TPA) fleet of 24 aircraft in 1970 and probably joined the fleet in the 1960s. The aircraft remained with TPA though its purchase and sale by Jim Pattison Industries until the airline went bankrupt in 1993. After five subsequent owners in British Columbia including Fort Langley Air, it's been based in La Ronge, Saskachewan since November 2020.
