Quick update - The painting of Halifax NA337 at the RCAFM Museum will begin later this week (Sept 15) and she will not be on display to the public until the day following her official dedication ceremony on November 4, 2005.

Below are a few photos taken yesterday Sept 10.

They have really done an impressive job on NA337. Should look outstanding after painting.

Thanks Mike for keeping us updated.

Very nice work! This is the one raised from a fiord in Norway, rite?

They've done a good job.

I've always had a soft spot for Halifaxes.

I hope more get recovered.

It's been just over ten years since Halifax NA337 was raised 750ft from the bottom of Lake Mjosa in Norway.
