Photo Comment

Built in 2000 and here visiting in connection with a TV series called Wings Over Canada. The aircraft was still registered to Found Aircraft at the time. Under later ownership, on 5 July 2006, it met its end on a river 100 NM north of Kuujjuarapik/QC. A water landing went bad and it overturned at 50 knots then was carried downstream while tumbling through rapids.
