Aircraft wings being transported on HWY401 near CFB Trenton

[markcia]

The family and I were coming back from a trip to Toronto on Thursday the 17th of March when I came across a large tractor trailer with 2 chase vehicles on HWY 401 transporting a set of blue shrink wrapped wings Just west of CFB Trenton. I can't tell what they were from but from the outline of the shrink wrap it sees that the trailing edge needed some work. They seemed to be a sweep angle similar to a Sabre but thicker at the root.

Just curious where they came from and where they were going to...

Which direction where they heading to or from Trenton, if heading to they maybe loadstar wings going to Trenton for there Hudson project

They were going eastbound. Just west of Trenton. I didn't see them after Trenton so maybe you are correct.

After looking at a Hudson picture I can see where I thought that the trailing edge would need work. The Hudson had those unusual trailing objects. It would appear that you are correct.

Global Express and Challenger wings are made by Mitsubischi in Mississauga and transported to Montreal for assembly...Ive seen them on the 401 before..could have been them..
