Hi,

I could upload my picture of the voodoo but it will spoil the impression given by yours.

Nice pictures, I wish my camera had been a good one back when I took mine.

regards

Steve

I have quite a few more shots, but don't want to overload the forum with my stuff.....everyone should have the ability to post without getting their images lost in a sea of others.........

I have flown the yellow Fleet Canuck CF-MHW that is shown in the above photo. It was owned for many years by a friend from childhood who is now deceased. He "Willed" the airplane to the Museum before he died. I have also flown about six other Fleet Canucks with different engines from 85 to 100 HP, some with wooden propellers and some with the hub extention and the metal prop.
They are strong airplanes and they fly like they should fly and they will do anything you ask them to do. They also spin tightly and pop out of a spin nicely due to the very powerful rudder. Great airplanes.
