Last went to Aspen Airways 9 December 1988. Written off 20 January 1989. Received substantial damage in a forced landing near Buena Vista, CO due to engine failure.

  Nothing much to add here either even if I have it as wfu 31 Dec 1972. Official manufacturing date was 3 March 1949 so we have a more narrow photo window than the 440 shown later. Stig
