The Aero L-39 Albatros is a high-performance jet trainer aircraft developed in Czechoslovakia by Aero Vodochody. It was designed during the 1960s as a replacement for the Aero L-29 Delfín as a principal training aircraft. The L-39 Albatros has the distinction of being the first of the second-generation jet trainers to be produced, as well as being the first trainer aircraft to be equipped with a turbofan powerplant. The type was widely exported to a wide range of international operators as a military trainer.
The Albatros is the most widely used jet trainer in the world; in addition to performing basic and advanced pilot training, it has also flown combat missions in a light-attack role. The design never received a NATO reporting name.

I went to my guy to get my haircut. I simply asked for a trim. Instead he changed the shape of my hair and cut off inches. What the? Oh well.
It was hard not to notice Steve. He definitely stood out from the crowd despite his camouflage at the Bicentennial commemoration of the Battle of York in Toronto. The Battle of York took place during the War of 1812.
Steve is in the Canadian military and I thought he looked like Sasquatch but this is really a ghillie suit, a form of camouflage worn in combat to blend into foliage. He was one of several soldiers in uniform mingling with the crowd and representing the modern Canadian Forces.
When I asked to photograph him for my projechttp://www.utah.com/destinations/t he was quite accommodating and even met my request that he move the strands aside "a bit" so that at least part of his face would be visible. When I asked Steve just where this suit would be worn to blend into the surroundings, he shrugged and guessed "A haystack, maybe." We both had a laugh as he explained that this suit is not that practical in combat and would likely tangle with a rifle and that it is often worn at public events like today's.
Thank you Steve for being Stranger #39 for my project.
