Photo: Norseman of 122 (K) Squadron RCAF at Patricia Bay in mid-1942. This appears to be a transitional scheme from the all-yellow one in which the aircraft was delivered (TOS May 1941). There appears to be some indication that it is bi-color camouflage.
Noorduyn Norseman History
The Noorduyn Norseman, also known as the C-64 Norseman, is a Canadian single-engine bush plane designed to operate from unimproved surfaces. Distinctive stubby landing gear protrusions from the lower fuselage make it easily recognizable.
Introduced in 1935, the Norseman remained in production for almost 25 years with over 900 produced. A number of examples remain in commercial and private use to this day. Norseman aircraft are known to have been registered or operated in 68 countries and also have been based and flown in the Arctic and Antarctic regions.
Design and Development
Designed by Robert B. C. Noorduyn, the Noorduyn Norseman was produced from 1935 to 1959, originally by Noorduyn Aircraft Ltd. and later by the Canadian Car and Foundry company.
With the experience of working at Fokker, Bellanca and Pitcairn-Cierva, Noorduyn decided to create his own design in 1934. Along with his colleague, Walter Clayton, Noorduyn created his original company, Noorduyn Aircraft Limited, in early 1933 at Montreal, which then was reorganized in 1935, as Noorduyn Aviation.
Noorduyn's ideal bush plane was a high-wing monoplane airframe to facilitate loading and unloading passengers and cargo at seaplane docks, where the high wing provided the best clearance from docks and seaplane ramp fencing, and least opportunity for damage, and from conventional airports, with a structure that could be easily repaired in the bush. Noorduyn designed it to have interchangeable wheel, ski or twin-float landing gear. Unlike most aircraft designs, the Norseman was first fitted with floats, then skis and, finally, wheels.
The final design looked much like Noorduyn's earlier Bellanca Skyrocket, a strut-braced high-wing monoplane with a welded steel tubing fuselage. Attached wood stringers carried a fabric covering that faired out the more refined shape. Its wing had a wood structure covered in fabric, except for steel tubing in the flaps and ailerons. The divided landing gear were fitted to fuselage stubs with the legs secured with two bolts each to allow the alternate arrangement of floats or skis. The tail could be fitted with a wheel or skid.
Operational History
The first Norseman, powered by a Wright R-975-E3 Whirlwind, was flight tested on floats on November 14, 1935, and was sold and delivered to Dominion Skyways Ltd. on January 18, 1936, registered as "CF-AYO" and named “Arcturus." In summer 1941, Warner Brothers leased CF-AYO for the filming of "Captains of the Clouds" starring James Cagney. Principal aerial photography took place near North Bay, Ontario with CF-AYO carrying temporary registration "CF-HGO." CF-AYO was lost in a crash in Algonquin Park in 1952. Its wreckage currently is on display at the Canadian Bushplane Heritage Centre.
Almost immediately, the Norseman proved itself to be a rugged, reliable workhorse with steady sales for the era. The prototype, serial number 1, CF-AYO, was designated the Norseman Mk.I.
The next four aircraft (serial numbers 2, 3, 4 and 5) were Norseman Mk.IIIs. CF-AZA went to MacKenzie Air Service, Edmonton, Alberta, CF-AZE to Prospector Airways, Clarkson, Ontario, CF-AZS to Starrat Airways, Hudson, Ontario, and CF-BZM to Mackenzie Air Service, as CF-BAM. Several additional aircraft were to have been Mk.IIIs but were completed as Mk.IVs.
CF-BAU, serial number 6, had minor changes that were required for it to be certified, and had a customer supplied 450 hp (340 kW) Pratt & Whitney R-1340 Wasp SC-1 engine as the Norseman Mk.II, but was later re-engined with a 600 hp (450 kW) Pratt & Whitney Wasp S3H-1, its original intended engine, on June 26, 1937 as the prototype for the Norseman Mk.IV.
The Mk.IV was the definitive pre-war model but the production run might have ended at a few hundred examples if not for the advent of the Second World War.
Second World War
By 1940, Noorduyn had sold only 17 aircraft, primarily to commercial operators in Canada's north and to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. With the outbreak of war, demand for a utility transport led to large military orders. The Royal Canadian Air Force and the United States Army Air Forces became the two largest operators. The RCAF ordered 38 Norseman Mk.IVWs for radio and navigational training for the British Commonwealth Air Training Plan.
USAAF Colonel Bernt Balchen was establishing a staging route across Greenland to ferry aircraft to Europe. He required a transport rugged enough to survive in the harsh conditions of the Arctic. After evaluating six Norsemans diverted from the RCAF order, late in 1941, he recommended the purchase of the Norseman Mk.IV specially modified to USAAF requirements as the YC-64A. After the US entry into the Second World War, the USAAF placed the first of several orders for a production version C-64A Norseman. The principal differences included two fuselage belly tanks raising the standard fuel capacity to 201 imp gal (910 L; 241 US gal), and an additional cabin fuel tank of 32 imp gal (150 L; 38 US gal) that could also be installed. These changes resulted in an increase of 950 lb (430 kg) in the loaded weight. Deliveries began mid-1942, with the US military eventually ordered 749 Norseman Mk.IVs as the C-64A (later UC-64A).
Throughout the Second World War, the USAAF Norseman aircraft were used in North America (primarily Alaska) as well as other in theaters of war, including Europe. Three UC-64As were used by the US Navy under the designation JA-1. Six C-64B floatplanes were used by the US Army Corps of Engineers. Other Allied air forces also placed orders, for 43 Norseman Mk.IVs. The RCAF ordered an additional 34 aircraft as Norseman Mk.VIs. Noorduyn was still the sole manufacturer, but when the USAAF considered ordering a larger number of C-64As, license production of 600 by Aeronca Aircraft Corp. (Middletown, Ohio) was planned before being cancelled in 1943.
Major Glenn Miller was a passenger on a UC-64A Norseman (s/n 44-70285) flown by F/O John R. S. Morgan which disappeared over the English Channel on December 15, 1944, possibly due to being struck by bombs jettisoned from RAF Lancasters after an aborted raid.
Another Norseman crashed into King Alfred's Tower, a 50 m (160 ft) tall Stourhead estate folly in Somerset, England, killing all five air crew in 1944.
Postwar
Postwar, the Canada Car and Foundry acquired the rights to the design and produced the Norseman Mk.V, a civilian version of the UC-64. To further improve the basic design, "Can Car" designed and built the Norseman Mk.VII with a bigger engine, a new all-metal wing and greater cargo capacity but it never went into production. With large Korean War commitments at that time, the company put it into temporary storage where it was destroyed in a hangar fire in September 1951.
In 1953, Noorduyn headed a group of investors who bought back the jigs and equipment from Canada Car and Foundry and started a new company called Noorduyn Norseman Aircraft Ltd. Bob Noorduyn became ill and died at his home in South Burlington, Vermont, on 22 February 1959. The company continued to provide support for operating Norseman aircraft and built three new Mk.Vs before selling its assets in 1982 to Norco Associates. Norco provided support services only, as Norseman aircraft manufacture wasn't seen as being likely to be profitable.
The last Noorduyn Norseman built was sold to a commercial customer on January 19, 1959. 903 Norseman Mk.I to Mk.V were produced and delivered to commercial and military customers. There are currently 42 Norseman aircraft on the active Canadian aircraft registry and 9 active in the United States. The number in use worldwide is not known.
In recognition of the Norseman's role in serving northern Canada, the town of Red Lake, Ontario, a jumping-off point for remote communities in Northwestern Ontario, promotes itself as The Norseman Capital of the World. Each summer in July, the "Norseman Floatplane Festival" brings Norseman aircraft to Red Lake as the centerpiece of a community based weekend festival ranging from stage entertainment, children's games and rides, contests, cultural and historical displays and street vendors with craft and specialty booths.
Canadian Second World War ace George Beurling died in May 1948 landing a Norseman at Urbe Airport in Italy while ferrying it to the newly formed Israeli Air Force. The engine of a Norseman that crashed during Operation Maccabi of the 1948 Arab-Israeli War are on the IAF's Har Hatayasim (Pilots' Mountain) memorial near Jerusalem.

There is some indication that these may have, in fact, actually been Tadpoles which would introduce the Ogdoad to this Story but that is much too complicated to expound here so I will leave this, for now, as the two Serpents.
I decided to go ahead and change it back to the Tadpoles haven't recently found some info on the Scriptures that support my understanding of the Ogdoad which I may eventually type up and place in the Footnotes here.
This conclusion is supported by the Prophetical Rule that the Scriptures are not needlessly redundant (these Signs being Prophetic to a certain extent) and you have, no doubt, these two Serpents in the Caduceus Sign of Cygnus so it explains more of the story returning these two to Tadpoles.
I have shown one larger to represent Heh and the other His boy. Significantly, the larger one is swimming back to Aquarius which was Shu which is Heh and the smaller is swimming up to Andromeda which is Prometheus which is His Boy.
And, finally, the use of the Amphibious Tadpoles shows their rise from the Abysmal Waters...

What give every indication of being original editions from decades, indeed centuries ago, the titles from The Remnant Trust that were selected for resonance with the mission of the hosting site, The Acton Institute, are displayed in large, glass-face cases that rest on tables. The cases are open and with the help of the host-docent, visitors can move the hinged top in order to get a close-up photo without the complication of the glass case glare.
In this photo one of Cicero's writings fills the foreground, while facing the opposite side are two of George Orwell's books (1984, and Animal Farm). The King James bible of early 1600, as well as a publication tied to the Protestant Reformation giant, Martin Luther, can be seen in another case.
On the one hand, visitors are invited to touch the Great Books and make photos to remember their visit, but much more impressive than the sometimes ancientness of the object that has passed through its own chain of custody to reach this room in November 2021, there is the matter of the ideas printed long ago, but still living in human experience today.

This is the only Zygocactus out of the five (5) we own that actually blooms around Christmas time so the more common name of Christmas Cactus is appropriate for it. Unfortunately the flowers on this particular plant are 1/3 the size of the other four and it does not have a brilliant fuchsia color, but is more reddish in shade, which leaves me to believe it's a Red Zygocactus. The leaves also do not have spiney tips, which is an indication it's a different variety of Zygocactus than the others. Photograph taken and edited by yours truly. ISO200, aperture f/5.6, exposure .033 seconds (1/30), focal lenght 21mm.
