This 1967 Islander was delivered to the USA as N71JA, eventually flying for Key Airlines / Sun Valley Key Airlines in 1969 - 74 as N17UP /N217UP. Later registered XB-GUG and N14451. Wilderness Airline bought the aircraft in June 1976. On December 4, 1987, C-GOMC disappeared during a flight from Bella Coola to Campbell River, BC.
