i have just been reading around the airshow websites, and i see all they airshow flyers (mostly from the states) have put all these retired aircraft into flyable condition....prime example being the F-86 "sabre"
My question raised to the panel is: why can`t someone or group in canada do something like that?....like what Vintage Wings did with the sabre. Would it be that difficult to get aircraft like the CF-100, CF-101 or the CF-104 (i know there is a jet team out there flying retired RCAF widowmakers) airworthy with RCAF markings, to show of the hertiage of our historic service.
This issue has been bugging me, just thought i would open it up and see what people have to say
