CF-CRM was a Bo105 and later on a Fokker 28; no Hudsons but there are some Lodestars.

Pascal has taken out the old CF- registrations and put them all in the C-F format, possibly to save loads of unnecessary typing.

If you're not in a hurry, you can get the records from Canada's National Archives, they have records on Lockheed Hudson III CF-CRM dated 1946/05-1954/06.

Search the archives at http://www.collectionscanada.gc.ca/index-e.html for info on the file #.

Looking at the excellent "The Lockheed Twins" by Peter Marson, it says that CF-CRM was the former RAF FK774. It was sold to Canadian Pacific in Mar46 and then to The Photographic Survey Company in May49 before being cancelled from the register around 1952. It has no known fate.
