NOTE:The Buffalo listed as 116461R is not and has never been a Canadian military aircraft. It is an ex Sudanese Air Force Buffalo obtained by the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum (CWHM), and repainted as 115461 in United nations (UN) colours. It is listed here to differentiate between the two when persons who see the aircraft and search its history thinking it is the actual 115461.
