For the third year in a row, the Classic Air Rally was organized
at Rockcliffe, home of the Canadian Aviation Museum in Ottawa.
Apparently, the organisation took lesson from last year’s
disappointing show, and managed to persuade many warbirds
and classics to come to the historic airfield. The event was
blessed with great weather allowing excellent photographic opportunities.
Although a little overpriced at $20, this seems to be
the usual fee for North American shows nowadays. Some finetuning
took place with Vintage Wings of Canada from Gatineau
(Que.), right across the river, as the latter decreased its number
of free open houses this year, which will surely have benefitted
attendee numbers of the Air Rally.
