More pics from Edmonton. I wanted a few shots of a Fleet aircraft that a friend owned for many years. It was older than he was and he flew it over 440,000 miles before his death. The little yellow 2 seater was his passion in life and his travelling machine all over North America.[attachment=3:fcqdfply]Sert 2010 018.JPG[/attachment:fcqdfply][attachment=2:fcqdfply]Sert 2010 023.JPG[/attachment:fcqdfply][attachment=1:fcqdfply]Sert 2010 024.JPG[/attachment:fcqdfply][attachment=0:fcqdfply]Sert 2010 025.JPG[/attachment:fcqdfply]

Nice. I got to get up there on the bike.

Water Warrior 2 · 10-05-2010, 01:55 AM

More pics from the Air Museum. Hope you like them. Except for my friends small aircraft most of these aircraft have been restored with loving care by volunteers. Some are privately owned and on loan from their owners.

This is a beautiful little plane from WWI.

It took very courageous men to fly in a wooden aircraft such as this one.

We live in a truly beautiful world and a road trip is good for the Soul.

Yes, I also felt that I have to go up there some day.
Great road sceneries...
I wonder what did you think at the time when you take biker photos... ha ha ha
Thanks for the sharing.

I was a little envious of the rider. That could have been me coming down the road on 2 wheels.

Wow WW, what great photos. The outdoor scenery up there is so beautiful it is hard to believe it is real. Loved the airplane shots to, thank you for sharing with us.

Thanks, WW. I had no idea there was such a museum up there in Edmonton. I'll have to get up there one day to see it. Those first couple of pictures remind of the Yellowhead Hwy up near Jasper. Is that it?
I'd love to do a road trip like that one day on the bike.
