VWoC Albums Updated

I have posted some more pictures from my visits to Vintage Wings of Canada (VWoC). VWoC held another Fly Day, this time on July 1st, Canada Day. The greater Ottawa area, including Gatineau, is the place to be on Canada day. The Canada Aviation Museum often invites aircraft from the Canadian Warplane Heritage to perform some fly-bys. This year the CWH aircraft included their Canso and Firefly and were based out of Gatineau and parked on the VWoC ramp. A number of other visitors attended included Olivier Lacombe with his Piaggio-Focke Wulf 149 and Pitts Specials from Smith Falls.
