Buffalo Airways Curtiss C-46D C-FAVO takes on a load of avgas at Inuvik for a charter flight hauling building supplies.

Delivered to the USAF in 1945 as 44-77846 this C-46D is one of two Commando's currently in service with the 'flying museum' of Buffalo Airways .  Based in Hay River, Northwest Territories, Buffalo operates a large fleet of classic propliners including DC-3s, DC-4s, C-46s, PBYs and a recently acquired pair of L-188C Electras (among other less glamorous types).
