I was able to get to the Smiths Falls Flying Club fly in breakfast today, which is also Canadian Forces Day. The high point of the day for me was the arrival of this Mk IV Hawker Hurricane courtesy of Michael Potter and Vintage Wings of Canada. This example is clad in the colours of RAF 6 Squadron. While it is nice to see these airplanes in static display, nothing compares with the sound of a Merlin powered airplane fly-by. The food, as usual was very good, unfortunately the day dawned with light rain so attendance wasn't as good as could have been. I'm sure those who took a chance that the the forecast would pan out had a good time.
