 De Havilland Canada DHC-6 Twin Otter

The Time Air Historical Society has acquired and preserved a De Havilland Canada DHC-6 Twin Otter original registration CF-VMD, which had been built as a demonstrator of the model in 1967.

The 56-year-old aircraft was leased by Time Air under registration CF-QHC in 1971. It was later bought by Kenn Borek Air and leased  to Harbour Air, under registration C-FQHC, on several occasions up until 1995. 

It was then leased to Maldivian Air Taxi before returning to Canada and being re-registered as C-GBPE in 2010. It was stored at Calgary Springbank Airport (YBW) until November 2021 when it was dismantled and transported by road to Lethbridge for preservation.
