This DH 82C Tiger Moth was build by DHC at Downsview, Ontario and Taken on strength by the 28 March 1942 as RCAF 3932 and assigned to No. 1 EFTS at Malton (today's YYZ). It had 2024:50 hrs TT when and sold post-war to the Royal Canadian Flying Club Association as CF-CKF. It was acquired by DH collector W.T. "Watt" Martin of Milton and later Grand Valley, ON on 29 April 1966. In Nov. 2017 was transferred to Donald Martin, Watt's son. The Gathering of the Classics fly-in moved from Collingwood (CNY3) to Edenvale (CNV8) after the wartime RCAF airfield was reactivated by Milan Kroupa Sr. in 2004.

This Avro Canada CF-100 Mk 4 was retired from operation use in 1964 and used at Canadian Forces Base Borden north of Toronto as a technical training aid (serial 646B) and later stored in a radiation test compound near the south gate of the base. It was restored by volunteers in workshops at the base in the early 2000s and displayed outside the base's aviation museum located in a 1917 RFC (Canada) hangar where it was photographed beside two CF-5s and two CT-133s. It was later moved to a location further north outside the "WO & Sgt Mess, Juno Beach" on Flaise Road.
