Calling the Canadian WIX-department

Posted by Cees Broere on Thu Dec 11, 2003 10:30:00 AM

Boys,

By some mysterious force I seem to be pulled time and time again towards the photo's Dan Jones took of wrecked York CF-HMX. Everytime I see those beautiful photo's I think why doesn't anyone do something about it.

Do any of you guys know if there is any interest in Canada in recovering this valuable airframe and do something interesting with it (restore it as a York, convert the wings etc into a Manchester, whatever).

With the number of recoverable wrecks getting less, this would be the one with the hightest priority. After all there are only two complete Yorks on display at the moment. Make it three!!!

What do you think,

Cheers

Cees
