Reg not showing but still officially registered C-GRWW at the time. Still in the colours of North Cariboo Flying Service. Little known about Omega Aero Transportes although I did find a DC-3 (N817NA) with their titles and logo photographed in San Diego CA May 89. It may have been a relatively short-lived airline and this Convair may have never been delivered to them. The aircraft did eventually go to Mexico in Jun 92, reportedly first with Servicios Aereos Ejecutivos and then with Krissalan de Aviacion as XA-RXN.

Ex XA-KIN, SE-CRN and N156CF. Bought by Omega in Jun 1989 but not registered and stored. To XA-RXN in Jun 1992.

This was the first of three Convairliners operated by North Cariboo in the '80s. Bought in 1980, it would be joined by another CV440 and a 640. C-GRWW was sold to new operator Canada West Air in May 1986. That airline sold the aircraft in June 1989 as it moved to Convair 640s, but ceased trading in 1990.

Built in 1954 for Aeronaves de Mexico. Canada West got this Convair from North Cariboo Flying Service, whose color scheme the aircraft still wears. Exported back to Mexico and last seen in storage at Morelia.

Obtained from Combs Airways but still wearing a Linjeflyg cheat line.
