What happened to the B-52 flying? I'm sure there was a B-52 in the original post that was suppose to.

When they announced it originally they said a "B-52 would be participating in this years show". when it was finally added to the list it was only in the Static list. May have been a misunderstanding on our part (read excitement) or they may still be trying to get it flying in the show.. I have no idea.

Boy if someone could snap shots of the Ch47F I'd really appreciate it. Sounds like a good show. Sadly its way too far for me to get to but I'd love to see that Ch47F as I am planning a 1/72 build.

Have fun fellas!

Hi:

Last weekend was I was CFB Borden I came across this outside the aircraft museum there:

Not sure what the story is on it. For the Aircraft Battle Damage Repair School, perhaps?

Cheers,

Scott

Yeah that's an older U.S. Army Chinook used by Canada and given Canadian serial #147205 that crashed in Afghanistan back in 2011. I thought it originally had nose art on it somewhere...perhaps removed or painted/censored out at some point? Last I heard it was sitting outside a hangar in Petawawa but its obviously been moved to Borden (possible museum piece or perhaps battle damage tool?) A cool picture nonetheless and I saved it for my own personal collection I hope that's o.k.

Hey now I know what to do if I screw up my Chinook...instant diorama :lol:.

Thanks for posting it.

:cheers:

EDIT: here she is after Afghanistan accident:
