Saw this in the Toronto Sun yesterday and thought some of the air force enthusiasts might have an interest. I have never heard of this plane. There is a story of the IODE group here. The Hamilton Spectator also had a story about IDA and included a photograph.
Interesting story! here is details of another Canadian restoration! Who knows, if the British restoration goes well, there might be a three ship formation! CANADIAN WARPLANE HERITAGE
That'd be great if they got three of the Bollingbrokes flying again. Maybe they could preform at airshows?
Thanks for the thread! I remember a Bolingbroke being for sale in Canada a few years ago and it was relatively complete as an airframe. Cheers Owen
It was for sale for quite a while in Classic Wings and other mags from memory. Ended up under US$100k, IIRC. Almost within reach but then you'd have to restore it!
