Rocky from Vintage Wings of Canada by DavePhoto by Melissa Kamphuis | Vintage Wings of Canada dedicates all of its aircraft to famous and no-so-famous Canadian airmen whose lives are

Much of their immediate neighbourhood, called Lebreton Flats, was considered a blight to snooty federal district planners and was bulldozed in the early 1960s to make way for future urban development.
