A Jazz de Havilland Dash 8-400, registration C-GVJZ performing flight QK-8421 from Kelowna,BC to Vancouver,BC (Canada) with 39 people on board, was enroute at FL200 about half way into the flight when the crew reported a rudder problem and continued the flight to Vancouver. Tower initiated an emergency stand by. The aircraft landed on Vancouver's runway 08R without incident about 25 minutes later.

The Canadian TSB reported shortly after takeoff from Kelowna the rudder trim went full right. The crew managed to maintain control of the aircraft, declared PAN and elected to continue to Vancouver. Maintenance replaced the aileron/rudder trim control panel and performed the related tests before returning the aircraft to service.
