TMTV Nelson BC Canada - Buffallo aircraft lands in Nelson BC. De Havillands DHC-5 Buffalo and DHC-4 Caribou aircraft were uniquely well designed for short-field operations in difficult conditions. The Buffalo program actually won an Us Army competition for a light STOL airlifter, but service rivalries ended up killing the contract. Canada bought them, and so did a number of 3rd world countries who found its bush-plane design heritage appealing.
