Canuck

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.:)

Airlift

Hi folks; My deepest thanks to Col Halvorsen,USAF,RAF for
the airlift,my father lived at the north end of Tempelohf
43-48.THANK YOU! We have never forgot what you all
have done for us,without it i may not be here today.
Please anyone going by Dayton stop and look at the
display there,very moving.We definitley need a new
movie to remember these fine folks.

War graves

Hi folks; Over here Civil war remains are when found
are treated like they fell yesterday.Look at the HUNLEY,
post mortem ,then burial with full honours.I beleive
when the fallen are found they must be brought home.
The artifacts can be preserved to tell the story.
Everyone must come home,however long they have
been “on patrol”.That’s just my 2 cents worth.

CF-105

Hi Tom,Your post is very timely,in the Toronto Sun today
The Toronto Aviation Museum is in a spot of trouble with
the landlords[crown] is going to start charging rent.
They have started a project for expanstion to house
the replica and expand floor space.LT-GOV David Onley
and Harrison Ford [owns a Beaver] is stating a fund
riasing effort.casmchallenge.com Let’s hope they
don’t to have to sell any a/c.I’d sure like to see
FM-104 fly.

Pesky callers

Hi folks; over here we just got a no call regisetry so
only polictical parties,charities,and acouple more are
only allowed,but guess what the goverment dept
in charge is selling the list to ad men for $50.00!
And worse is v.o.i.p calls i/e 000-0000 or123-4567
on the call display and callers selling from other countries!:mad:

Met flights

Hi Resmoroh: Yes the crews were kept busy. The ingress in
to the flt up to 20.000ft to next waypoint and then down
MSL on egress with what you descibed on say 14hr mission.
Then you watch what the N.O.A.A folks fly through i just
might take my chances with the Germans,at least there
i would have a chance of defeating my adversaries.By
the way we’ve recorded rouge waves of 100ft + off the
Grand banks.Did any crews meet their fate on one of
these?The QUEEN MARY almost did full of troops!:eek:

halifax

Hi Hornchuch:That does help alot,reading that more than
one Halifax failed to return to base on the west coast of
Scotland on the ‘met’ flights.I’m a bit surprised that
the a/c was left in R.A.F colours,Guess by that time
there wasn’t much of a threat left.The base on the
west coast looks awfully remote any bits been looked
for there.Thanks.

DASH-8

:(Hi folks; Having worked with Dash-8 and 7 ac for
a long time it certainly was shocking to hear one
was down.Witness’s say they heard the engines
sputtering,that’s one thing i’ve never heard a
turboprop do.49 souls and one town in our hearts
and prayers.R.I.P
