Default Twin Otter VH-BVS leaving ?

Flightaware has Twin Otter VH-BVS Orange-BNE-APW tonight.

Is this off to a airline in the SW Pacific on lease or heading elsewhere ?

If so there may only be one Twin Otter left in the country?

I know Seair had a 2nd one.

Any ideas Greg.

Lloyd,

The other Seair Twin Otter is VH-ZKF is up for sale for $US995K

These are the 2 of 58 that has appeared on the VH-Reg.

Hopefully an Aussie operator will pick up the new model when released.

BVS has been purchased by a Canadian company for use in the Yukon. A bit of a change in climate for this Aussie aircraft!
