I sorta liked Meteor NF14 WS838 in yellow…was the new camo scheme representing an earlier part of WS838 career?

Does the Sabre have an engine?

What of the outdoor aircraft is next in line for a repaint?

I like that Mil Mi-24 Hind…is that still pretty much a flyer or a complete airframe?

Nice pix indeed…does MAM have a Sabre in their collection?

And are they still building a set of wings for that early mk Gnat?

Newark example is a very well kept example…..and they have some systems that are still active….APU etc..air brakes…I guess H & S issues prevent her from firing up now days..

And I don’t think the Anson will like being outdoors…too much wood and fabric I think….

Is the Lancaster piece a wooden mockup??

I wonder what plans Greenwood have for her….she was still in her RCAF colours I think when she left Ottawa…very faded,,,,

And the nose extension is quite a rare feature as far as preserved Lancaster’s go…

Is the DC-3 the one that they acquired from the Aviation musuem in Ottawa?

I didn’t realize that many post war II RCAF still retained their turrets…it must have improved their comfort level in the aircraft when they covered over the turrets in later years…

Sounds like great memories..I think these two old girls in NewBrunswick and NovaScotia will hopefully remain in RCAF post war scheme for many more generations to see…and interesting considering both of these girls are WWII veterans….

Perhaps they wish to preserve the interior as is..once they are restored..you can not go back an undo it as easily…

Thanks for posting those interior shots…at least she does still have plently of potential as a solid airframe…and I think she had recieved some attention over for the past five years so she has not been forgotten by the Greenwood museum group…but a some form of cover would do wonders to save her for the elements for sure….

Any idea on how to get a copy of the book on KB839?
