Roadtrip, Trenton,Cambleford

Get behind the line Andrew:)

Hey Deryck,

Any idea on what the traded for Expeditor they will be getting is like “condition wise”?

And I will put up my hand if personal tours are being offered of the Halifax 😉

Andrew

Were you under the fuselage drilling? I met stu and bill and a taller guy with blakc hair who said only pics in black and white are allowed lol

Peter, I was in the workshop working on the Anson fuselage – glueing of course!
I did find the time to get a piece of cake.

Deryck, didn’t see many people in the hangar, there was a chap in a multi pocketed vest darting around but other than a girl doing the table setting there was noone around?

CF 100

OshawaFlyBoy, the Canuck has been traded for an Expeditor. So it will soon be moved out.

Visit to Trenton.

Peter, you mean that you came into the Museum and you did not say hello to me! You could have had a personal tour of the Halifax and the area! I could have even added you to the luncheon!

I will have to check the pictures to see if I am in any of them!

Cees there is a mockup lanc rear fuselage sitting outside but it is made of stee; and cl;ad in heavy metal and would be extremly heavy to shift. Saying that though it would look awesome fully fitted out with a rear turret possibly skinned in aluminum as per the original!

As for the Hali , they are looking for a correct Trolly Acc if anyone has one spare??

Hi Peter,

Thanks for thinking of me:p

She looks good doesn’t she? Now all that hall need is a Lancaster next
to it so visitors can see the two most important bombers the RCAF went to war with (no not forgetting the Wellington and others, but where so you find one these days).

Cheers

Hi Peter; Last time i was there 1 CF-100 and a T-33
where at the back,the canuck looked like a MK1.
But i thought only the prototypes had the short
nose.This has to be the oldest one i’ve seen was
she a testbed?I really must get up there soon.:)

She is an early one for sure. I forget the number but the one at our Museum in Nanton is also an early Mark 3 I think

Canuck

I was sorta hoping that the museum would change their mind and not display that early period of aviation powered kite/brass reproduction in the Hali Hall.

To tell you the truth I don’t really know what it is….but it looks like it is hanging in their now… 😉

Oshawa are you talking about the Cf100 at Cambelford? It was bought from Lambeth legion a few years back…

Campbellford air force

Hi folks; Peter did you find out any info on the
short nose CF-100 that is there? Nice little
place blink and you’ll miss it!I’m always to be
found fishing and camping at Ferris p.p.
Got to goto 8 wings free airshow July 4-5
Free admission!Check out Trenton’s website.

Not sure how much space they will have once the Harvard and Anson are completed.

Great pictures Peter,

I see that they have moved some aircraft into the Halifax Hall.

Not sure if they really need to put the FSM model Spitfire indoors as I could think of others that could benefit for the space but I guess it does go with the Hali theme for the building.

The chippy looks pretty tidy under the bonnet. 🙂

Cambleford Museum

We were pressed for time so I only managed pics of the resident Tutor 114180 in the process of being paint stripped.
