Photo Comment

Stored carrying the DHC test registration C-FGNP and United Express livery; it had been prepared for delivery to the United Express operator Presidential Airlines as N803XV, but they had filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy the previous October and that registration was not taken up. It later served with ALM Antillean Airlines, Bangkok Airways and AIRES Colombia and on 23rd August 2008, whilst whilst in the service of the latter, it was damaged beyond repair when the right landing gear collapsed on landing at Ernesto Cortissoz International Airport, Barranquilla, Colombia.
