I guess my point was that with so few of them flying, it might be difficult to get to one of their airshows. As Adam mentioned earlier, we in Toronto are lucky, because one of only (I think) two flying Lancs operates out of Hamilton, about 30 miles from Toronto. It's seen flying over our city several times a year. It's so distinctive sounding, one can identify it by ear, without actually seeing it... cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
