Photo Comment

Havards served widely in Canada from 1939 to 1960, this example being initially used for pilot training by 411 Sqdn at RCAF Station Toronto. It later moved to No.6 Repair Depot in Trenton and subsequently served at Summerside, PEI from 1956. It was sold to a private individual in in Ontario in 1960 but was stored outside and never flown again, requiring significant restoration before being placed on display, to begin with in Toronto and at the NAFMC since 2007.
