    Nup, Occussi east Timor 2000.

    I was part of the ground crew maintaining this aircraft in Dilli at the time.

    It used to do the Occussi run a couple of times a week supporting the UN.

    She 's a 38 sqn bird here.

    Currently sitting in a paddock behind the army aviation museum in Oakey QLD.

  • Pretty sure this is Buka, PNG, the South Pacific Peace Keeping force 1994. I think it is a 35 SQN bou.

  • C-7 Caribou was the largest fixed-wing that the U.S. Army operated. Nice bird, very wierd tail!

  • @wtfUidjit

    No, It's my mistake. They do have a 70,000ft final manufacturing facility in Calgary to go along with 150,000ft manufacturing facility in Victoria.

  • @seaniam81

    My mistake - sort of. Their head office is in Victoria but their manufacturing facility is in Calgary. But maybe thats only for the new DHC - 6 400s.

  • @wtfUidjit

    Viking Air is not of Calgary, AB. They are from Victoria, BC.

  • Im not sure of the year that Caribou was built but I know that it was built in Downsview Ontairo Canada by De Haviland manufacturing! They made some of the best turbo props in the world along wtih the Buffalo, Beaver, Twin Otter, Dash 7, and Dash 8 Great company that is now gone but some of the planes are going to possible be made by Vicking Air also in Canada.

  • @vne1981

    Viking Air of Calgary, AB will be happy to build you some brand new DHC-5 Buffalos. They're basically DHC-4's on steroids. Check out the videos for the "CC-115 Buffalo" here on YouTube.
