Involved in an incident.
While on floats, the aircraft was being flown on a ferry permit to Selkirk, Manitoba for C of A renewal. Engine failed shortly after takeoff near Libau, Manitoba and a forced landing attempted on a fallow field. Floats struck an elevated road on approach and the float brackets failed. Aircraft came to rest on its right wing and left float. Failure was blamed on fuel starvation due to a blockage caused by corrosion in the fuel selector valve. Inspection revealed numerous discrepancies which rendered the aircraft unfit for flight. (.
