Edenvale Ontario Airshow 13 Aug 2017

[Dennis Cardy]

Report from Edenvale airport... located in rural Ontario countryside. (South of Wasaga Beach on Georgian Bay.)

RCAF training base during WW2. No.1 SFTS was a detachment of Camp Borden, and part of BCATP.

Has an Annual FlyIn with classic aircraft and automobiles. Plus a fine display of local Military vehicles.

The visiting WW2 training aircraft included a Canadian style Tiger Moth, a Cornell that honours the brave Norwegian airmen..and one of the very few Fleet Finches in accurate wartime configuration with the enclosed canopy.

An active and thriving airfield today. Home to a group that maintains its wartime RCAF heritage.

The Army Types arrived early and set up a nice assortment.

S. Marshall polished his Brit. machine and Gary Cailes arrived shortly
after in his C60 wrecker.

Chad Marshall displayed his very nice dispatch riders bike.
