: Are they still planning on putting the CF-100( the former
: CFB Uplands aircraft)on a pole outside the Canada Aviation
: Museum?

I hadn't heard about that. The CF-100 was removed from Uplands a few years ago, and I saw the tail outside of the museum on July 1. The aviation museum would be a nice place to pole mount a CF-100 as a gate guard. But... I was thinking that an even better place would be outside of the "Diefenbunker". For those that don't know this bunker is located at Carp (just outside of Ottawa) and was built into the side of a hill. It was decomission in the 1990s, and a private group has turned it into a museum. It would be quite appropriate to see the CF-100 and CF-101 pole mounted outside the bunker.
