Rolled out in January 1982, this Twin Otter was delivered to MAS Malaysian Airline System as 9M-MDJ in February. It was wrecked landing at Limbang airport, a small field built in 1963 by the British Army. It over ran the end of the runway and crashed into a drainage ditch seriously damaging the forward fuselage on January 8, 1998. A new airport was built after 2000 at Limbang. The aircraft wreckage went to Dodson International Parts until moved to Calgary, Canada and rebuilt sometime during 2019 - 23. Registered C-FDYL in January 2024, Harbour Air put it in service in June. This photo is copyright © Gary Vincent, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
