I thought the limit was 10mB?

That would be great! Right now they are restoring a Mosquito in Nanton and apparently a Hurricane in  Calgary so if anyone knows of any parts kicking around! One day I’ll go and see how they are coming along with a Avro Arrow build at the smaller airport south of here.

Hi Tom,
I was at Nanton on 23rd August, at 10 at night they fired her up, no lights on, the pilot  went thru the startup procedure for the 1st engine broadcast over the speakers, one engine at a time, with all 4 running the lights came on!
It was a fantastic night! They ran her for 15 minutes, shutting the engines down one at a time.it was the 75th anniversary of the crash of the Lancaster in France flow by of the only Alberta pilot to receive the VC, Squadron Leader Ian Willoughby Bazalgette,
My dad had come with us, he’s 92, so it was a special night for him, & something my son, wife & I won’t forget. I have 15 minutes of video & just love the sound.
The Bomber Command memorial wall is very sobering!
Nice to here that they are going to work on more aircraft.....another excuse to visit again, when we come over to visit our son.

Cheers Kerrin
