I have seen this airplane before, I think on here. So if the owner is on here...............THANKS ALOT. Here I am with a new company on my 3 month probation, it warms up enough and we open the doors and here this Harvard sits waiting for customs to clear him. I then get no work done!!!!! Trying to stay focused, I hear a sweet sound. An enertia starter!!!!OH MY OH MY!! Here I got to look busy and put some rivets in a Warrior wing, well I was junk for the rest of the day!!!

So attention Warbird owners and to you #236. For the next month and a half, there are to be no warbirds/anything radial engine powered aircraft to land at BTV from Mon thru Friday!!!!!! I need no distractions. After that time is up, Come on in!!!!!!!

BTW #236, SOUNDED GREAT when you left!!!

If this is the same 236 I have lots of backseat trips in it when it was owned by Classic Wings in Oshawa, Ontario. We did lots of barnstorming rides with it and it was the photoship in Iron Eagle IV (no comments). Registered C-FGUY, it was sold few years ago to Guy Charlebois near Montreal. Not sure if he has sold it or not but it is still registered to him.

Cheers,

Eric

Yep, thats the airplane!!!! Thanks for the info. Figure he was close to the area, he came in and cleared customs and did not take fuel. Sure did sound good.

The original RCAF 20326 was in the US registered as NX15799, and painted as a Zero. Is this the same aircraft? When did it come back to Canada?

N3N,

yep.......what Eric said. I used to fly this plane many years ago when it was owned by Classic wings. Always a hoot to get to fly the Harvard.

Bill, I think you got a bit dyslexic there......236, not 326.

Yeah, I'm dyslexic, but that's KO.

I'll go back to lurking mode now.
