| This
beautiful example of a Consolidated Canso (the Canadian name for a
Canadian-built example of the PBY-5A Catalina) was on display at the
2017 Edmonton Air Show, Canada and long-term supporter of
SEAWINGS, Canadian-based Chris Eldridge - aka 'Dogsbody' on the
SEAWINGS Flying Boat Forum was on-hand with his digital
camera to shoot this beautiful walk-round to share with us all. This
Canso is operated by the
Fairview Aircraft Restoration Society (FARS) who are dedicated to
the restoration of this historic World War II patrol bomber,
formerly known as RCAF 11094. To read more about their organisation,
