A visit to the Commonwealth Air Training Plan in Brandon on
        Friday of the May long weekend.  The weather was pleasant for
        the visit and the timing couldn’t have been any better.  Just as I
        arrived at the museum, they were in the process for getting their
        Havard MK II and Cornell ready to depart for an air show that
        weekend at Russell, MB.
        I had the perfect opportunity to take some photos of these
        airplanes and thought you might be interested in seeing them.
        Unfortunately, I didn’t have my telephoto lens along since I
        didn’t expect to see the airplanes fly.                                   July Schedule
