This is just a follow-up to the press release I posted last month. The DH-83 has arrived in the Vintage Wings of Canada hangar in Gatineau. All is well with the aircraft and it made the trip from New Zealand with no ill effects. The wings and tail are expected to be assembled to the fuselage in about a week. Mr. Potter and the crew are happy to have a new bird in the hangar.

Mike
