About to land on Runway 31 at Prestwick for a fuel stop. Returning to Canada from United Nations work on charter from Trans Capital Air Ltd of Toronto, Ontario. Built in 1985 for Intercol Colombia as HK-3340X and served in Colombia for some twenty years. Joined Trans Capital Air's fleet of Dash 7s in 2006. Eventually retired to open storage at Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport. In 2017 donated as an instructional airframe to Fanshawe College's Norton Wolf School of Aviation Technology at London International Airport, Ontario.
