The aircraft did come up out of the water largely in one piece, the motor is still missing; they will go back to look for it next winter. The aircraft was cut apart to get it all onto the trailer to bring in home.
CF-JDO is found and retrieved from Peter Pond Lake, SK. The left side photo is not mine, and I don't have any other photos of the salvage.
Ray Gran, (the pilot) left, is seen on Aug. 10, 1959, in the background is the Cessna 180 which disappeared ten days after the photo was taken.
Darn, I forgot to add the photoshopped one...oops. Here it is. Mine? I wish! It is for $ale, can't imagine what the price tag tho.....
I'll just to wait for next paycheque. ;p
A few pics from a photo shoot I did 2 weeks ago of this beauty, as well as a few others I've taken of the
same aircraft at other times.... and one photoshop special. :)
Thanks for looking!
There is an issue with Uploading Photos (attachjments). I am not sure what the problem is, and I am looking into it. You can still try to Create your Threads and Upload your Photos, but it is hanging up during the Upload.
