Hello Avi,
Do-28 msn 3092 went to Israel as 4X-CFD and the last I read was that 3092 was rebuilt by "Eduardo" in El Salvador in 2013.
When using Google to search be aware that there are 2 Do28 types. There was the smaller model such as CF-INA and the larger model called the "Skyservant". In addition the smaller type had 2 different models. The Do-28A-1 with a 250hp Lycoming and a 2 bladed prop and a Do28B-1 with a 290hp Lycoming and a 3 bladed prop.
Be sure to look up "Dornier Do28B-1 Production List".
There were several Do 28's in AB and the NWT in the 60's and 70's. Shell Oil, Air Exec Services, Alberta Gov't, Northward Aviation, Hudson Bay Oil and Gas etc. In 1969 Home Oil operated a Do28 Skyservant out of Field Aviation in Calgary..
Petrofina had its head office in Calgary AB. I don't know where CF-INA was based.
What is your interest in CF-INA?
Regards,

George Kelly was the prime PetroFina pilot on the "doorknob". I saw him occasionally in Inuvik in the early 70's.
