This 1-11 is an important one in that it survives as one of the few potentially flyable example remaining. First registered in 1967 as N270E, it served various US corporations and was sold to Rockwell International Corp in April 1971, becoming N44R, a registration previously used by the company on an F-27 and before that a CV-440, and later on a B727. Seen here arriving at Southend for attention by ATEL, it was again sold in 1977 as N524AC, changed to N87BL in 1996 and N999BW in 1998. It is now stored at Kansas City with an organisation called Tristar Experience.

This YS-11 was delivered new to Transair August 1968, along with it's sister ship (CF-TAM). After the merger with Pacific Western Airlines, the turbo-props were deemed surplus and sold in October 1979 to Pinehurst Airlines.
