Originally a US Navy S2F-1 Tracker (BuNo 136658). Withdrawm from use in 1981 and stored at MASDC. Acquired by Conair in 1987 as C-GYQS and converted to Conair Firecat, then delivered to the Sécurité Civile as F-ZBDA in June 1987 (using F-WEOK for the ferry flight). Returned to Conair in Sep 1991 for conversion to Turbo Firecat, and redelivered as F-ZBDA in Sep 1992 (again using F-WEOK for both ferry flights), but soon reregistered as F-ZBAP.
