: Hello all,
:
: I have scanned a few more negs. These negs were copy negs
: from slides that were loaned to me in 1995. The Gentlema
: n who loaned them to me was John Thomas, a friend of my gr
: andfather and a former RCAF F-86 pilot. You can find the

: There are a few shots of Canadair Sabres, plus a few shots
: of one of the two RCAF deHavilland DH-106 Mk 1A Comets!
: These shots were apparently taken in Italy. There are als
: o some pictures taken at a Farnbough air show. Mr. Thomas
: indicated the pictures were taken in the mid to late 1950
: s and, and by cross referencing that with the Scramble air
: shows lists, I am guessing it was the 1957 show. The pic
: s include a Vulcan, a Hunter, a Sea Vixen, a BEA Comet, tw
: o Gannets, an EE Lightning, and a Gnat.
:
: I haven't filled in comments for the photos yet, but they
: will be coming soon.

: Ejoy!
