Nice ones Jeff. Odd shade of green on the Dak though.

I agree. That airframe was/is located at CFB Comox British Columbia. I get the feeling that when they did the painting it was with whatever paint was in the shop. IIRC she has been redone in a much more accurate c/s since this photo was taken some 12 or 13 years ago.

Good ones Jeff. It would b nice to see the RN Historic Flight's Firefly back in the air - haven't seen it for over 25 years.

Don't think I've seen that Cessna Crane in the air. Is it airworthy Jeff?

It has not been for some time now. I have seen it flying but this was back in the late 90s. Good news out of the CWH is that they will be restoring their Anson back to airworthy status starting next year I believe.
