Ex N4700C, N2001, NC44783, 41-20133 (C-53). Originally converted with two Dart turboprops in 1969, registered as N4700C, and re-engined in 1977 (and re-registered as DC-3A-S1C3G N23SA) with three PT6A turboprops. Stored in 1980 and sold to Basler for rebuild as a Turbo-67, but not used and broken up by 2008. (A fuselage section was used in the rebuild of C-FMKB after it was severely damaged on 20 December 2007 in a take-off accident in Antarctica.)
