Restoration and Storage area Ottawa Air Museum 2006

Like most museums, displays are rotated.
This area is rather crowded but look behind some of the main shots and you will see some treasures.

Re: Restoration and Storage area Ottawa Air Museum 2006

Great stuff, smartd!!

A Beau nightfighter - very sweet.....

Is that the air gunner trainer version of Fairey Battle? I have a relative who trained on those before going on to 428 Sqn. in '44 as a Lanc rear gunner.

Nice Volksjager... Coastal Lib.... Buchon... and Arrow wings!!

Re: Restoration and Storage area Ottawa Air Museum 2006

Wow! That is a museum all in itself.
 

I can take umbrage, I can take the cake, I can take the A-Train, I can take two and call me in the morning, but I cannot take this sitting down. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to take five.

Yeah, those are pretty sweet displays indeed! I hope someday those will be fully restored in it's former glory as they ought to be displayed.

Re: Restoration and Storage area Ottawa Air Museum 2006

It is located in Rockcliffe, a WW II airfield.
Is called the National Aeronautical Collection, used to be housed in WW II hangers.
Was much nicer there in the original setting.
The Canadian version of the Wright Pat Museum.

Re: Restoration and Storage area Ottawa Air Museum 2006

If things work out next summer I will be up in Ottawa and I will make a visitther and to the new War museum. The Canso and the Liberator would be worth the visit alone.
