Not sure how the boys are getting around the H & S concerns
for their instruments on their Halifax. Were all WWII instruments
treated with radiation during the that time period. I have heard
some restoration groups have had the instrument make safe
for use? (taken apart and replaced with new non radioactive backings) but not sure about this one!!

Those air to air pictures sound great. I would love to see them also.

I posted a few pictures here of the Flight Fest to raise a little interest in our local air scene. I really would like to see interest
grow in Canada’s avaition history. Many smaller restoration groups around Canada work with very little publicity these days so I figure get the work out there to the “aero nuts” as you call them.

I saw a number of aircraft being treated like jungle gyms over the weekend and most aircraft owners or groups were doing their best allow the visitors a close up look at these fine planes,,but you do have to treat these old girls with respect..some are getting quite old and should be looked at but not touched(poked)

Mr Potter was very polite in allowing myself and couple of other plane geeks to photograph his plane up close.

Thanks for info Olivier I will keep a look out on the WIX Forum for details on your next landings!!:)

I did photograph her again on the tarmac on Sunday. She looked great. I even managed some close ups of her cockpit.(from a distance)

Too bad you could not have been in the show…:)
