Wings Across Canada

From the RCAF's much loved Harvard to Canadair's breath-taking Sabre, from the eccentric Fairey Battle to the lethal looking CF-18, from the modern airliners which have no character or defects to the classic North Star which had both -- here is the ultimate lineup of aircraft that have served Canadians so well in peace and war.Between these covers are over eighty photos in colour and black and white of the historic planes of Canada. There is no particular logic to the choice of line up. Neither are all these aircraft "classic" in the definition of the word. But ultimately, this is a retrospective of the aeronautical technology that explained Canada at a moment in its recent history. This is a love affair with aircraft.
