Early RCAF CP-107 Argus 20725


Click on the image for a larger version

Here's what the old girl looked like when newly introduced into service with 405 (MP) "Eagle" Squadron at Royal Canadian Air Force Station Greenwood, Nova Scotia Canada. Bare metal overall with quad-reversing Red and White flash. This finish scheme also features the Canadian Ensign and White upper surfaces. Note that this aircraft did not receive the Red Search markings on the wings and horizontal Tail surfaces.

Late RCAF (20719) from 415 (MP) "Swordfish" Squadron, circa 1967 is next...this one looks strange, but I have a photo!
