Abbotsford Air Show 2010

The Museum participated in the annual Abbotsford Air Show on August 13-14 by flying four of their classic aircraft - the Harvard II, the Waco AQC-6, the Tiger Moth and the Fleet Finch - in the daily morning display. Abbotsford provided scorching weather and an action-packed program.

The CMF Waco AQC-6, Tiger Moth and Fleet Finch await their time in the air.

The CMF Harvard participated in a four-ship formation with three other Harvards.

The Museum had a well-stocked booth selling both merchandise and memberships.

From the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum in Hamilton, ON, came the Avro Lancaster,
seen here flying with a Canadian Forces Hawk trainer with Mount Baker as a backdrop.

 Vintage Wings of Canada, based in Gatineau, QC, provided a Canadair Sabre 5 and a FG-1D Corsair.
