Fwd: The Ghosts of Saskatchewan

If the USA were the arsenal of the democracy, Canada was the Flying classroom of the Allied air forces. Many young airmen learn to fly there including Belgians. Again a fantastic article from Vintage wings of Canada.

Ladies and Gentlemen Aviators

Starting in 1940, the British Commonwealth Air Training Plan blew through the Canadian Prairies like a summer hail storm. Massive training infrastructure projects meant huge changes in the economy, population, spirit and society of small farming communities just coming out of the Great Depression. Then, in 1945, they were gone. As some of these critical-to-the-war bases fade away for all time, we take stock of the fates of the BCATP airfields of Saskatchewan.

Video : Lockheed T-33 Operating Instructions


Uploaded by on Jun 22, 2009
Lockheed T-33 Operating Instructions - Part 1. The Lockheed T-33 Shooting Star is an American-built jet trainer aircraft. It was produced by Lockheed and made its first flight in 1948, piloted by Tony LeVier. The T-33 was developed from the Lockheed P-80/F-80 starting as TP-80C/TF-80C in development, then designated T-33A. It was used by the U.S. Navy initially as TO-2 then TV-2, and after 1962, T-33B. Despite its vintage, the venerable T-33 still remains in service worldwide.
