Originally RCAF 3698. Once was a yellow bird of the Ontario Gov't. Brand new Walter Turbine conversion. Note the airflow sensors on top of the cowl. Analyzing rain dispersal over the windshield. Sad note: This Otter was destroyed in a fatal crash in Ontario on 16 Dec 2003.

First time this bird visited Spain thanks to an engine failure.
