Taken on Strength by the RCAF on March 21, 1957, this Silverstar was sold to Silverjet Llc as N433RD in November 2002. Initially displayed as USAF 52-1579 (in the CAF camouflage of it's last Canadian Air Force service), it reverted to the Canadian Air Force 439 SQN markings in 2008. The aircraft is one of the Canadian Silverstars with an upgrade that included a new one piece wrap around windscreen.
