Sorry about the blank post--
I live on the West Coast of Canada and the main problem with the Museums out this way- is the lack of Funding! Therefore they all have small displays with most having to house them outside. The Comox Air museum is doing a great job rebuilding their Spitfire but needs funds/ sponsorships. Keep up the good work Harold!
The BC Aviation museum here in Victoria where I live is at the very least finacially responsable and not running a deficit. Their aircraft are protected inside a hanger but they're running out of space and need to expand but they need money to expand! The Main concern I have is the fact that Canada has no National Museum of any kind in Western Canada! I think a branch museum of the National Aviation Museum out west would be a good idea.
