Notes:

This great plane was built in 1979 and is still hauling cargo in Northern Canada. Nowadays flying for Summit Air. The de Havilland Canada DHC-5 Buffalo is a short takeoff and landing (STOL) utility transport, a turboprop aircraft developed from the earlier piston-powered DHC-4 Caribou. The aircraft has extraordinary STOL performance and is able to take off in distances much shorter than even light aircraft can manage.
