After landing in Victoria's Outer Harbour, taxiing through the narrows towards the seaplane docks in the Inner Harbour. Delivered new to the Falklands Islands Government Air Service (FIGAS) in 1958 as VP-FAH. Served there prominently until 1967, featuring on Falklands Islands postage stamps. Initially re-registered as N17598 with a Mexico City owner and then joined Kenmore Air in 1968.
