DC-3 Oshawa - Enterprise Air Inc.

Tue Oct 12, 2004 11:43 am

Does anyone know if DC-3 C-FOOW Serial No13342 still flies out of Oshawa Airport near Toronto? I saw her in the background on a Tv series over the w/e?

Anyone know the fate or location of DC-3 C-FMOC..she used to be located at Carp Airport. Last I heard was that she left for turboprop conversion but ?

I had asked about C-FMOC well over a year ago on WIX. At the time no-one had heard a thing. There was no confirmation of whether it had se sold for turbo prop conversion or it was scrapped. Back then I tried contacting First Air, but had no luck contacting anyone that knew anything about the airframes at Carp. The Yahoo DC-3 list didn't have anything to add at the time either.

Hmmmm..... I can't say if C-FMOC is still out there or not.

Thanks Mike for the info...

I also have a few pictures of another DC-3 (I think First Air's)..with no wings etc..she was parked at a local scrap yard (ED's Salvage just outside of Arnprior Ontario) for a a few years 96 to 97 maybe..but she also disappeared one day..no idea of reg or cn on that one but if anyone remembers it could help solve another mystery of mine!!

C-FOOW still flies cargo occasionally to the US. It was also involved in the shooting of a movie a few weeks ago, part of which was filmed at Brantford airport, staring Kevin Bacon. OOW was painted blue on the bottom of the fuselage and wings for the movie. I believe that part of the film was also shot in Iceland. Enterprise Air also has a Beech 18 that is not currently flying.
