I had occasion to be stationed at CFB North Bay ON. during the 50th anniversary cross Canada tour of this beautiful aircraft. I took several photos of the aircraft on approach, landing and with crew on the ground for photo op. I'd like to share them here but it doesn't seem possible.
Just absolutely fabulous! What a beauty! Bravo Canada!
I believe I may have flown on this plane when she toured the country in the 90s. She was a truly beautiful aircraft and a piece of flying history.
They are celebrating by sending one of the last two airworthy Electras on it's final journey?
Fun!
Fun!
Weird isn't it
AAAhh, back in the day when it was really important in a twin, tail dragger airplane that your feet knew instinctively what to do as well.
Save the old Birds, they just don't make them like that anymore!
