Forum rules
ImageThis is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum.
Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post.
In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.).

Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so.

Red Deer Alberta November 16, 2012. Large.

Post by Sowald »

On November 16 I had visits to Buffalo Airways and Air Spray at Red Deer Regional airport.
Here in Canada Buffalo is known from the show Ice Pilots NWT.

C-FABQ had a right main gear failure while landing in Yellowknife, somehow they were able to ferry it to Red Deer where it is being repaired.

fantastic pictures, i am amazed (and yet sad) to see so many L-188 Electra's and DC-3's being stripped.
the Electra's are a real treat, as there arent many of those arround these days.

Nice pics! Still on my list to visit this place.

BTW, the former HR-AMM doesn't look much better than when I saw it at Lanseria, SA about 12 years ago. But I'm guessing it is in much better hands than it was over there.

Thanks for all the nice comments.
Red Deer is certainly worth a visit if you happen to find yourself in the Calgary area.
I even volunteer to go there with you.

Groeten uit Canada.

I hate to put watermarks there Melmac, but it wouldn't be the first time that somebody takes my pics and post them somewhere under their name. That is why I always fade it out a bit.
I still hope you like the pics though.
