P-51C Mustang, San Luis Obispo, May 13, 2015

This is R6915, a Supermarine Spitfire Mark 1A in the Imperial War Museum, London.

 

It flew during the Battle of Britain in 1940 when it helped defend London against aerial attack by the Luftwaffe.

Some anti-tank rifles.

Val-Halla, a restored P51 Mustang, flying at the 2025 Abbotsford International Airshow. It was supposed to be taking part in the USAF Heritage Flyover alongside the F35 Lightning II but the F35 hand to land due to technical problems so Val-Halla flew on it's own while the RCAF Snowbirds prepared for their performance. Val-Halla was named for both it's pilots Bill Anders wife Valerie and for the Black Knights P51 squadron that was stationed at Keflavik, Iceland during the Cold War.

A Vought F4U Corsair flying in a demo the 2026 Abbotsford Airshow. One of three Warbirds that flew in the flyover. It flew a solo demo later on in the airshow and was fantastic, pilot handled the old warbird well. This is one of my favorite planes from WWII and it's always a delight to see one fly.

The F-16 Fighting Falcon is a compact, multi-role fighter aircraft. It is highly maneuverable and has proven itself in air-to-air combat and air-to-surface attack. It provides a relatively low-cost, high-performance weapon system.

Probably the nearest i will get to seeing a Lightning fly is this excellent hand made remote controlled model. It really does look the real deal and is powered by mini jet turbines.

The RCAF CF-18 Hornet demo during the 2023 Abbotsford Airshow. The Cf-18s are now due to be replaced by the new CF-35 Lightnings by 2027 making this years airshow one of the last few times that they'll be at Abbotsford. It'll be sad to see them go when they're finally retired.

Love the aerial shot of this plane, I knew I had seen it before. Here it is at the Chandler Fly-in April, 2011. Not the best shot, but here it is anyway.

Replacing our vintage Avro Lancaster, which occupied this spot for more than 40 years and taken off her pedestal for restoration; these two full scale, replica WW2 fighters are on display at Jackson Park here in Windsor. A beautiful memorial for Windsor and Essex counties fallen soldiers. On the right, there is a Hawker Hurricane, and on the left, a Supermarine Spitfire.
