The aircraft was operated as Tanker 262 of Aero-Flite Inc. and was photographed at the company's maintenance base at Kingman, AZ. In 2014 Aero-Flite sold their CL-215s to part fund the purchase of four CL-415 "Super Scoopers", and N262NR went to Canada as C-GFBN where it was converted to turboprop power, becoming a CL-215T but still retaining the c/n 1081. It has since returned to the USA and now flies as N415BT Tanker 281 for Bridger Air Tanker 1 LLC of Belgrade, MT.
