CF-ATZ flew from 1933 to 1949, then crashed on Lake
Aristofats, NWT (with the death of the pilot and one
passenger; three other passengers survived). The wreck
was recovered in 1980 and restored.


It would feel kinda odd to fly a plane that
someone else died in.


Lots of bomber crews have done it.

I'm not sure if this aircraft was restored to flight, or if it was
put in the museum (the web site belongs to the Alberta
Aviation Museum in Edmonton).
