This Basler BT-67 Surveyor, an ex-Douglas DC-3C owned by CGG Aviation (Canada) Limited of Ottawa, is shown here at Muskoka, Ont.’s Little Norway Memorial Airport on May 10, 2014. A recent Basler BT-67 conversion completed in 2012, the aircraft belongs to one of the world’s largest geoscience companies. CGG provides geophysical survey services to the oil, gas and mineral sectors with a large fleet of aircraft and ships. Its Canadian air division includes a de Havilland Canada Dash 7, a CASA 212-CC50, a Diamond DA-42, three Cessna 208s, and a Cessna 404. Most of these were formerly operated by Fugro Aviation. In September 2012, CGG Veritas acquired Fugro’s Geoscience Division, assuming aircraft operations in January of 2013.
