Canso CF-OFJ, CV 315, RCAF11033

Thu Aug 11, 2011 5:11 am

I search for photos of Canso CF-FAR and CF-IHB and Catalina CF-JTL.

And I am also looking for a picture of Canso CF-OFJ, CV 315, ex RCAF s/n 11033, crashed 23 June 1965 while making a water pickup at Little Catalina Lake, Newfoundland. Captain Bjerg was killed, but his co-pilot, Max Wiseman, survived the crash.
I met Povl Bjerg (a Dane) many times on Greenland in the beginning of the 60th, when he flew for “Air Greenland” in “EPA” Catalina’s and I flew as Flight Engineer on The Royal Danish Air Forces Catalina’s.

Cheers,
Erik
