Photo Comment

Overview of the outside exhibits belonging to the Canadian Warbird Heritage Museum. Note the two 727s hiding in the background, of which there were a total of at least eight dispersed around the field. It's a long time since I've seen so many 727s together in one place. The Buffalo was formerly ST-AHP of the Sudanese AF but has been restored in this UN scheme to commemorate the Canadian crew of the real '115461' who were killed when the plane was shot down over Syria on 9th Aug 1974.
