Norseman Mk IV CF-BTC flown by Zane Palmer from Fort McMurray, AB water taxis past the Britain pavilion at Expo 86. It was one of 23 aircraft to participate in the Expo 86 Bushplane Flypast over the 1986 World Exposition on Transportation and Communications in Vancouver, BC, on May 5, 1986. Eleven of the aircraft then landed on the ocean in English Bay and water taxied into False Creek so they could be viewed by the public from the main Expo 86 exhibition It was acquired by the Western Canada Aviation Museum in Winnipeg, MB in 1998.

Operated by Chimo Air Service

With "Diamond Jubilee 95" titles on the nose.

The aircraft crashed during a landing at Allen Lake, NWT on August 25, 1947 while being operated by Charter Airways, Yellowknife, NWT. Stan Edkins salvaged EIH in August 1993, and the Alberta Aviation Museum restored the aircraft from 1994-1997. Mackenzie Air Services was the largest civilian operator of the Norseman. Although "EIH" was not one of them, it has been refinished in Mackenzie Air Services colours.

Sold as NC60188, the aircraft returned to Canada in 1949 registered CF-GJN. Many bush airlines from Quebec to Alberta flew it over the years. The aircraft is pictured after a complete rebuild.

Ex 44-70509. I also find the background increasingly interesting every time I look. Front row: Fokker Spin III (replica, c/n 5365) and Fokker F-27 fuselage (PH-NIV, c/n 10101). Background: Aeriane Sirocco (PH-2B7, c/n 90-061), HM-14 (G-AEOF, c/n WM.1), Auster J/1 (PH-NFH, c/n 1845, silver fuselage & yellow stripping, with prop), Sagitta 013 (PH-308, c/n 006, white & blue leading edge wings), Schleicher K.8B (PH-393, c/n 8768, red wings & tail), Schleicher Ka-4 Rhonlerche II (PH-375, c/n 3078, white & blue fuselage), Grunau Baby IIb (PH-170, c/n 6052, yellow fuselage). PH-NDC (Fokker S-12) is possibly back there is well, hidden from sight. I think I also see Stearman Hammond Y-1S tails. The yellow metal could be Fairey Firefly TT.I SE-CAU.
