Warbird Information Exchange

Hi all--

Saw these three during my visit last week to Victoria BC for the Canadian Aviation Artists Association's conference; thought the forum might like to see them...

British Columbia Aviation Museum's ex-Conair, ex-USAF A-26 Invader, CF-BMS, static but quite complete


Bob Dick's ex-Buffalo Airways, ex-RCAF Canso, CF-UAW; she's flyable, will be restored to WWII RCAF coastal patrol configuration and markings


Bob Jens' ex-Spartan, ex-RAF Mosquito B.35, VR796/CF-HML, under rebuild to fly


S.

Thanks for the update, Steve!

Here's another thingy at BCAM you might possibly like...

...Bolingbroke IV RCAF 9104 (with parts from others), one of three Warbirds rescued in 1946 for (reputedly) $50 each by George Maude, two Bolies and a Kittyhawk. George went three for three with his foresight: Boly 9104 is on show at BCAM, Boly 9892 is at Rockcliffe, and the Maude family still has the superb Kittyhawk 1034. If only there had been more Georges around in the early postwar years...
