ex 44-84933, N2874D - returned to USA as N201F. Looks like he is waiting for start-up clearance at the annual Air Show. From a correspondent - This airframe was refurbished and painted in these colours by Edward Fleming in Calgary Alberta Canada around 1965-66. I believe it was sold by Fleming to a gentleman in Nanaimo British Columbia. I was told the purchaser was the manager of the Nanaimo Airport at one time. I also remember plane had drop tanks installed prior to this photograph.
