This tattered Yale was delivered to the RCAF August 23, 1940. Sold post-war to eccentric farmer Ernie Simmons who bought other Yales, Westland Lysanders and Fairey Swordfish. Left out in his field, he rarely sold anything and after his death in 1970, his collection was put up for auction. This Yale eventually went to the Canadian Warplane Heritage for restoration as C-GCWY. After restoration to flying condition, it was re-registered CF-CWZ and is still in the collection.
