Catch22
Major
Hello everyone! I just got back from a warbird vacation, so I thought I'd post the photos!
Saturday: Canadian Air Force Museum, CFB Trenton.
Notable Planes: Halifax, Hunter, MiG-21
Sunday: Canadian Aviation Museum, Ottawa, plus the air show that was at the museum.
Notable Planes: B-24, PBY, He 162, Beaufighter, Bolingbrooke
Airshow: Spitfire XVI, P-40
Canadian War Museum, Ottawa
Notable Exhibits: Panther
Monday: Vintage Wings of Canada, Gatineau
Notable Planes: FG-1D, P-51D, P-40, Spitfire XVI, Hurricane, Swordfish, Lysander
Tuesday: Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum, Hamilton
Notable Planes: Lancaster, DC-3, Firefly, Sea Fury
Russell Aviation Group, Niagra Falls
Notable Planes: Bf-109E-4, Spitfire (IX?), Hurricane
I took almost 1000 pictures, which will be uploaded over time. I can't post any pictures I took at Russell until I get their permission, as they once had a volunteer who took pictures without their knowledge (which in itself isn't a big deal), but they then sold them in a book at 45 pounds a pop, and sold a few hundred, and gave RAG no credit or recognition at all, so he kind of ruined it for everyone. In fact, they weren't letting any pictures be taken for a while. So I don't know when I'll be allowed to post them, but when I am I will, as I got some really cool shots that you don't normally see.
I was going to do the Corsair first, but with the order they're uploading in, I'll do the Spitfire XVI.
I was only able to get cockpit shots of the Spitfire and Corsair at Vintage Wings, the Spit because of the door that opens on the side, and the Corsair because they brought out a ladder for me so I could see inside.
