I have a photo of an Air Inuit DC-3 (C-FIRW c/n 9834), taken at KFLL (Ft. Lauderdale IAP) on Oct. 20, 1982. Various sources show this DC-3 as written off when it sank through the ice on a frozen lake in Quebec in March 1981. Does anyone out there know how it wound up in Florida, and what became of it afterwards?

Is it possible that your photo was take prior to 16 MAR 1981?

Nope... the photo was taken on Oct. 20, 1982 (my first visit to Florida).
