Was up there today.
This is the Sabre that was on display for years at the old Museum of Technology in Ottawa.
It is on loan to the CWH.

Nice shots, I have that one on my computer at home as well. Can't wait to get back there in aug!

WoW! Thanks for the awesome photos of that CWHM Sabre, Dave!

It would be a very interesting concept or novelty for manufacturers to have a diecast model made with 'see-thru' plastic window panes to view incredible internal details like the display
jet shown above. I used to have an old Monogram kit P-51 Mustang with the 'see-thru' feature where the other half of the fuselage and wing were molded "clear" so that you could view
the internal details like the engine, .50 cal mg's etc.!

Check the photos of the model contest. Best of Show was a model of this Sabre. Excellent piece of work.

It'll be a sad day for me when this loan item has to go back to Ottawa. Along with the Lanc this is my favourite aircraft in that Museum.

It will probably never to back to Ottawa as long as the CWH do not abuse it and keep it in good repair and on display.

Ahh -- sweet music to my ears! Those Golden Hawks are 50% responsible for my life-long love of aviation. It's like a pilgrimage for me every time I visit that bird.

Your photos are outstanding, by the way! Thanx for sharing.

The Sabre is a sweet airplane.

The guys up at CARP, (Ottawa) have bought a flying version that they will fly this year as a Golden Hawk. The Harvard Association just bought 6 T-birds that they will fly in various Canadian colours including a Red Knight. Airshows might be worth going to again.
