Martin Mars
According to Wikipedia, there were two flying until recently.
Philippine Mars last flew operationally in 2008(?) and the operator had run out of spares. It was sold to the US Navy to be displayed at NAS Pensicola Florida.
Hawaii Mars II is still airworthy, but it had not fought fires in two years ie not since 2010, and consequently failed to meet the firefighting contract preconditions for the province of BC. The operator therefore would not get a contract in 2013. Its fate is not reported on Wiki.
