She was a pole sitter but it was along the river front in Windsor Ontario. IIRC they want to make her flyable but money may mean able to move on her own.
Sure was sad. The airframe has been recovered and appears to be almost flyable. I believe (but could be mistaken) the pilot ended up drowning when he was unable to exit the aircraft quickly enough after setting it down in the river.
I am off to London Ontario this day to pick up my mother and bring her to my place for a family function. As it so happens, the Canadian Harvard Aircraft Association are holding an open house and fly-in at their home airport of Tillsonburg Ontario. Tillsonburg is situated between my home and my mother's place. I feel it is my responsibility to stop in just to make sure that things are on the up and up so to speak. Can I get an Amen to that?
