Do you want to find locations of displayed, stored or active aircraft? Then start with the The Locator.
Do you want to find or contribute to the documented history of an aircraft? If so then start with the Airframes Database.

I may be wrong Mike........And I hope so, but is there a static one in a Saskatoon museum ?

The Saskatchewan Western Development Museum (WDM) ?

Good question. I don't know. This is the Whereatt example though.

Just checked it Mike, it's far enough for it to have flown there........

Great news for the Canadian WB scene

The Lysander was trucked up to Saskatoon from Assiniboia with the wings removed. Tom Coates is purchasing the Lysander from Whereatt's and the is word he is looking at starting a museum in Saskatoon. The WDM museum in Moose Jaw doesn't have a Lysander. They have a Harvard Mk. 4 (RCAF 20475), Cessna Crane, Cornell, Anson, Tiger Moth and are restoring an Oxford. Next week I will post pictures of the Whereatt Hurricane before it left Assiniboia for the Vintage Wings Collection in Gateneau.

So will this be another Flying Lysander??

Thank you for the info......always glad to hear about a new Museum.

Does someone has a little background info on Mr.. Tom Coates
