That sign is simply brilliant, posted at both gates to the Buffalo premises that are often open.

It's not just the reciprocating engines that need to be kept warm. This Beech started as D-IKOR and also was N88879 and N702JL.

Despite having a livery of its own, Buffalo's doctrine on the subject is 'If there is green in it, it will do'. The former G-LOFC has retained above scheme, complete with Atlantic Airlines logo and only the airline name changed. Parked here without props after being added to the fleet two years earlier, she went on flying cargo again later.

Brought into the hangar next day, to be prepared for the season. Was taken over (via Bombardier) in August 2010 from the Newfoundland and Labrador government, whose colours it still wears here. Ownership passed on to Longview Aviation in July 2017. This is a relatively new CL-215, built in 1987.

Arctic Explorer has been sitting in cold storage for years, after being acquired by Buffalo in May 2002. Before that, this C-54 was Tanker 12 as well but with Aero Union as N4994H. Officially still on record as CF-BAA, the 1945 airframe with over 22.000 hours is for sale.

CF-CUE once was the first aircraft landing on the runway of what is now the Yellowknife airport. She flew with the USAAF for just three years before becoming civil and was with Canadian Pacific from January 1947 until moving on to the Department of Transport in February 1956. There, she was retired in October 1990, to be taken on by Buffalo in 1992.

On August 19, 2013, WIR suffered a complex engine failure during take-off while also being unintentionally overloaded. Not even able to reach 200ft AGL, she came to a sliding stop short of a Yellowknife runway, luckily without injury to persons. Part of the resulting damage can be seen on the nose. Her career started as USAAF 42-23509 in 1943, then Czechoslovak government as OK-VAV and French air force, including combat duty again, as 23509. Went civil as F-WSGY and eventually, in 1975, became C-GWIR. Smoke jumper platform as well as combined passenger-freighter aircraft with Buffalo.

On the forward fuselage is a badge depicting a JATO equipped penguin with helmet and goggles, under the text 'Extreme Altitude' in all caps. The 109th Airlift Wing provides annual support to the National Science Foundation. The LC-130s fly to destinations like Summit Station on the Greenland ice cap, where jet (actually rocket) assisted take-offs are often necessary from the not-so-solid snow runway at 3200 meters (10530 feet) above sea level.

On the forward fuselage is a badge depicting a JATO equipped penguin with helmet and goggles, under the text 'Extreme Altitude' in all caps. The 109th Airlift Wing provides annual support to the National Science Foundation. The LC-130s fly to destinations like Summit Station on the Greenland ice cap, where jet (actually rocket) assisted take-offs are often necessary from the not-so-solid snow runway at 3200 meters (10530 feet) above sea level.

Over the landing threshold with a clear view on the elements of the gravel kit that protects the belly, wings and engines on gravel runways. The nose wheels have been fitted with a ski-like deflector. Protruding from the engine nacelles are vortex dissipators that literally blow gravel particles, heading for the inlets, off their path.

It is almost too subtle to notice, but an arctic fox is depicted on the tail. This 1994 ATR was based mostly in Italy before it came to First Air in March 2011. In June 2015 it became N807HC and went to Hawaii.
