Info re: the Phantom

My father, W/O. John H. Knox, D.F.C. Can/R 125200, RCAF, flew 15 ops in the Phantom from Nov 43 to Apr 9 as bomb aimer with Captain “Butch” Bouchard. I made a pilgrimage to Grimsby and the old airfield at North Killingholme two years ago. It was very emotional for me to stand where my father and the Phantom once stood, I am very proud of my father and all those other young men who fought. Having the BBMF represent the Phantom is truly amazing for me and my family. I hope to be able to see her some time during the show season. Does anyone know if there are any special events for ex-crew and families?

Thanks;

Scott Knox, Ottawa, Canada
