Wartime PT-13B 40-1698, this Stearman became N60486 after WWII. Exported to Canada in March 1958, it was registered CF-KQB to Hicks & Lawrence. The aircraft moved to Dawson Creek, BC with AgAir 1974 - 98. Registered to Central Aviation in Wetaskiwin, AB in an unknown condition, it was apparently restored to flying status in 2017 and is current on the Canadian registry at the time of uploading.
