This decal sheet from Thunderbird Models includes markings 2 different DeHavilland Beaver operated by B.C. Airlines.

British Columbia (B.C.)is the western most province with it's coastline on the northern Pacific Ocean.  B.C. is a rugged province with many remote locations with lakes and the float plane is a common sight throughout the province.

There are two DeHavilland Beavers featured on this decal sheet, both operated by B.C. Airlines: 

  • DeHavilland Beaver floatplane CF-IUY built in 1956 in a white, red and grey scheme

  • DeHavilland Beaver floatplane with wheels CF-HGZ built in 1955 in a white and red scheme

The DeHavilland Beaver is a famous and unique aircraft and it is a special treat to see these 2 relatively unknown Beavers captured in 1/72 scale.  These decals are printed by Fantasy Printshop.

You can buy this decal sheet and many other decals and other modelling products from Thunderbird Models.
