Leaving Victoria's seaplane docks behind and taxiing out across the Inner Harbour. Taken on charge new by the US Army in 1956 as 55-3261. Military service included work as a test support aircraft at Yuma Proving Ground, Arizona. De-mobbed in 1976 as N5341G of the Civil Air Patrol. Exported to Canada in 1978 as C-GVNL for Air Saguenay. Flew with other operators in Quebec until purchased by Harbour Air in 2001. After Vazar conversion to PT-6 turbine power, entered service with the main fleet as "304".
