C-GCWG - Grumman TBM-3E Avenger - Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum
(in Royal Canadian NAVY 324 - 86180 military markings)
at Hamilton International Airport (YHM)
The Royal Canadian Navy operated Avengers until replaced by the CS2F Tracker in 1960.
Powered by a Wright R-2600-8 Twin Cyclone 14-cylinder air-cooled radial piston engine with 1.900 hp
The Museum's Avenger is a TBM-3E built by General Motors, Eastern Aircraft Division in 1945. It flew with the US Navy until the early 1950s, when it was phased out. Later it was converted to a spray plane and operated in California, from 1963 to 1972. In 1976, Forest Protection Ltd, New Brunswick, purchased it and the aircraft continued to fly in a similar role, until it was finally retired from commercial service in 1992. In 2000, it was sold to a French aircraft preservation group, but they were unable to arrange transport for it across the Atlantic. The Museum acquired the Avenger with the help of a generous donor in late 2009.
Restoration is complete now - the aircraft is
finally certified and will fly during the 2026-season

Swissair leased a couple of One-Elevens from British United (BUA) at different times. This one regularly operated the Zurich / Manchester nightstop. They couldn't display the full Swissair livery because, at the time, non Swiss registered aircraft could not show the Swiss flag on the tail (neutrality and all that... ).
G-AWYS was delivered new to BUA British United Airways in Apr-69. It was wet leased to Swissair on 23-Apr-70 (seen here in partial Swissair livery just prior to delivery from London-Gatwick) and returned to BUA in Oct-70.
BUA was merged into Caledonian Airways in Nov-70 to form Caledonian//BUA and renamed British Caledonian Airways in Sep-71. B.Cal was itself taken over by British Airways in Apr-88.

It was stored at Bournemouth in Aug-98 after almost 30 years in service. The aircraft was sold to EAS Airlines, Nigeria in Oct-98 as 5N-ESB. It was retired at Lagos, Nigeria, in early 2002 and broken up there later that year.
Note: This aircraft became known in B.Cal as our 'Boating One-Eleven'. It over-ran the runway after a late rejected take-off on departure from Corfu, Greece on 19-Jul-72 and ended up in a lagoon, still on it's undercarriage, in around a metre of water. Sadly there was one fatality, an elderly passenger suffered a heart attack and died on the way to hospital. During the take-off run the aircraft ran through a pool of standing water, some of which was ingested into the engines causing a momentary loss of power. The crew immediately suspected an engine failure and made a split-second decision to abort the take-off. The aircraft was later salvaged, repaired and returned to service.

In Jul-21 it was transferred to Eurowings Discover and operates long-haul leisure services on previous Lufthansa routes to the Caribbean, Central America and East Africa, as well as some long-haul services for Lufthansa (such as Frankfurt / Atlanta and Frankfurt to destinations in Canada). Current, updated 07-Dec-22.
I replaced the vintage limbs. From some newer figure. I don't know what it was from even ....It had a black guys head . And shoulder armor, that I removed....
This Cylon was OK for customizing since he has almost no chrome ! As we all know is a problem with this figure anyway !
I managed to get him apart without damaging anything ..It would be nice to be able to rechrome the pieces again. With some home kit or something... I haven't seen a home kit though ....

With additional 'On Charter to C.A.A.C' (Central African Airlines Corporation) stickers.
This was parked outside the British Eagle hangars at London-Heathrow being serviced with British Eagle equipment. As the rest of the BOAC DC-7C fleet had been disposed of by spring 1964, I think Eagle had a maintenance contract for the remaining 2 freighters which were in service until spring 1965. As the stickers say, it was being 'Operated for C.A.A.C.' (Central African Airways Corporation).
This aircraft was delivered new to BOAC in Apr-57 and was in passenger service for just three and a half years before it was converted into a freighter with 2 main-deck cargo doors by the Douglas Aircraft Company at their Santa Monica, CA, plant in Dec-60.
It continued in service with BOAC Cargo until it was sold to Universal Trading Corp (USA) in May-65. It was transferred to FB Ayer & Associates the same month as N16465. It was leased to Airlift International in Jan-66, returning to FB Ayer in Sep-66.

The Brickell Avenue Bridge is a bascule bridge in Downtown Miami, Florida, that carries U.S. Route 1 (US 1; Brickell Avenue) over the Miami River.
The original Brickell Avenue Bridge was built in 1929 and replaced in 1995. The Brickell Avenue Bridge was widened by one additional northbound lane in 2006 to reduce the traffic bottleneck through downtown. Before this, there were three southbound but only two northbound lanes. Currently, there are three lanes in each direction as well as a pedestrian walkway on both sides. Still, the bridge causes frequent traffic delays on the busy Brickell Avenue when it opens. According to the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), the bridge opened 4,990 times in 2010.
The statue is a 53-foot bronze monument commissioned by the Florida Department of Transportation and created by Cuban Master Sculptor Manuel Carbonell in 1995. The "Pillar of History" consists of a 36-foot high carved bas-relief column that graphically narrates the lives of the Tequesta Indians, Miami's first inhabitants, and features 158 figures. At the top stands a 17-foot bronze sculpture, "Tequesta Family" portraying a Tequesta Indian warrior aiming an arrow to the sky, looking for space in eternity, with his wife and child by his side, while the son covers his face in expectation of their extinction.
Carbonell also created four bas reliefs, measuring 4-feet by 8-feet, which were installed in niches on the bridge's supporting piers. Each relief honors Miami's early founders and pioneers - William and Mary Brickell, Henry Flagler, Marjory Stoneman Douglas, and Julia Tuttle.

Note 1: The aircraft was involved in an incident at Moscow-Sheremetyevo on 02-May-19 when a truck ran into the port main landing gear. The aircraft was parked remote and there was no-one on board, apparently the truck driver 'fell asleep'! It was repaired & returned to service on 16-Jun-19.
Note 2: Russia invaded Ukraine in Feb-22 and sanctions were placed on the country by the west, this meant that aircraft registered outside Russia were uninsured. The aircraft were taken over by the Russian State and were to be re-registered. This one was allocated RA-73327 but Nordwind had returned the aircraft three months earlier!

I'm working on an anthology of classic, epic poetry, which begins with selections from Homer's Iliad and Odyssey! :) I've replaced the Roman names with the Greek names: "RAGE, Sing, O goddess, the rage of Achilles son of Peleus, that brought countless ills upon the Greeks. Many a brave soul did it send hurrying down to Hades, and many a hero did it yield a prey to dogs and vultures, for so were the counsels of Zeus fulfilled from the day on which the son of Atreus, king of men, and great Achilles, first fell out with one another."
All the best on your epic hero's odyssey into the art of photography!
