My only guess as to why our FN16 is in Canada is because it was probably used as a trainer at a local BCATP gunnery school.
John,
Just curious, are those hydrualic lines made of copper?
Nice work!

Hi Cees,
I am really only working on the one FN121. My dad is starting to dismantle another and there is a third being used for parts.
Originally there were five FN121’s.
Correct, we also have the FN16 too.
Brit, thanks for sharing your great shots with us!
Very nice work John!
Eric, thanks for sharing your great pictures with us. Might there be a possibility that you could share a few more with us?
I finally got my turret (FN121) moved into the garage this weekend after sitting idol in storage for a few years. I hope to get back to work on it again soon!
John, you are quite correct when you say that it is very difficult to find parts!
Regards,
Possibly the Harvard from Smith Falls?
Hi Deryck.
I was at the museum on Sunday to snap a few pictures of the Halifax. What a great job you guys have done!!
I also took a few pictures of the Anson. I hope you don’t mind, but I thought I would just post them here instead of starting my own new thread. I understand the aircraft came from western Canada. Might you be able to tell us more about the identity of this aircraft?
Keep up the great work!
Mike
Hi Cees,
I have been trying to pop in and get a few more pictures of NA337’s since her dedication weekend. I know that they have been doing more work on her. I might try to visit this weekend.
As for the lancaster tail section, here are a few shots I posted last spring and the fourth is one I took after the dedication.
Where did it come from?
I know there wasn’t a whole lot of room inside the muesum at Greenwood, but where are they going to display the Anson? Outside with the Lanc and Neptune?
From what I can remember, it is on permanent loan from the Ontario Ex-Air Gunner’s Association.
Don’t forget about FM104 at the Toronto Aerospace Museum.
A few pictures from my visit last January……
Peter, I can’t get any time off in the spring.
The wife and I are planning a trip in July or August for a family wedding.
Sure did Canuck,
Here are a few pictures of KB839 at The Greenwood Military Aviation Museum at CFB Greenwood, NS.
Couldn’t get enough of the rain and fog, so I plan make the trip out east again this summer!
Regards,
A few pictures I took of KB882 on the way to Nova Scotia, July 2004.
Regards,
Thanks for your email Peter.
Does anyone have any pictures of the bomber trainer buildings that they could post?
Regards,
