Canada Day at the Alberta Aviation Museum

Tue Jun 28, 2011 10:00 am

July 1 10:00am The Alberta Aviation Museum has arranged for Canada's Senior Astronaut "Chris Hadfield" to do a special presentation..."Pursue Your Dreams" geared to under 17 years old...admission waived for 17 years and younger so ALL can attend. Seating limited to 400 due to building restrictions

Like Vintage Aircraft...This starting Thursday...Discovery Air Hawk One F-86 returns to the Alberta Aviation Museum joined by the Vintage Wings of Canada "Yellow Wings" BCATP Training Aircraft Harvard, Cornell, Stearman...here to July 3rd. One more surprise in the works, if it comes together it will be announced shortly.

If anyone going happens to get some updated pictures of the B-25 under restoration I'd love to see them posted. Happy Canada day.

Glad you made it out there, Steve!

(I'm surprised you didn't need a float rating to get through the prairies!)
