Imported by Hawker de Havilland, this Beaver first flew as ZK-CRE in June 1966 and was delivered to Fieldair. After an accident on November 22, 1981, the aircraft sat dormant until acquired by Wright Air for rebuilt circa 1988. It was sold to Kodiak, Alaska based Andrew Airways and registered N13VF. Another accident in November 2003 saw the aircraft dormant again until an extensive rebuild by Sealand Aviation in 2010. Sold to Island Lake Trading as C-GJWU, it was acquired by a private owner in November 2020 and registered N83VR.
