Hi all--
: Is it, perchance, the ex-Diemert Merlin-Firefly? It went t
: o some US museum. What is the count of Fireflies in USA (a
: nd Canada, for that matter)?
The Lone Star bird is the former Diemert "airliner" CF-CBH/WD840, yes. Saw it eleven years ago at Galveston in pieces.
Fireflies in North America? Hmm. Three in Canada that I know of (CWH's WH632, CAM's DK545, SAM's PP462), and in the States, three more, I think (Captain Eddie's, the ex-Schroeder WD833 and the ex-Lone Star WD840). Any others?
