Originally RCAF (later RCN) with serial 1449 from 1951. Struck off strength on 1968, this Expeditor was released for disposal. A failed sale to Superior Airways saw the aircraft stored at Thunder Bay (1970 - 73) until sold to Fectau Air Transport and registered CF-JIR. With Theriault Air Services 1975 - 80, it was sold in the USA and registered N729LP. The aircraft received several modifications in the USA when put on floats including a roof hatch, cargo door and later an airstair door. It returned to Canada in 2020 with it's old registration for Northern Edge Aviation.
