CF-CUE was built as a C-47?, constructor's number 12983, USAAF serial number 42-93108 and was delivered on Apr 10, 1944. It went to North Africa on or about May 9, '44. It returned to the US on or about August 19, 1945. It was given to the Reconstruction Finance Corporation for disposal on Aug 23, 1947? (possibly should be '45 or '46). Sold to the Charles Babb Co. of Glendale, CA on an unspecified date. Sold to Canadian Pacific Air Lines and registered as CF-CUE on Jan 17, 1947. Acquired by the Dept of Transport, Ottawa, Ontario on Feb 13, 1956. Reregistered as C-FCUE in 1975. I do not have any further information as to its eventual fate.
