: Can all of these places be visited in one day ? One could
: but hope :))
Yikes! I wouldn't think you could cram all that into even two days. My Dad and I did do, in one day in May 1995, Calgary Aerospace, NMA (just before they closed) and Nanton (both the Evans farm storage site and the museum itself--the latter in the evening, because by a fluke Mr Evans was doing tourguide interviews after the museum closed that day!).
: Tough choice since they all have very nice AC?s on display
Sure is. If you've the chance to visit Air Spray, it's very worthwhile and they're extremely hospitable (as have been all the tanking operations I've visited). The museums are great, but those working Invaders won't be there all that many more years...When Dad and I went out west in 1995 it was expressly to see those 26s while the opportunity existed, all the other cool stuff en route being "gravy". (And there was an awful lot of gravy!)
