Well, I finally had about 100 slides converted to digital. It was a surprise to see how badly some had fared over the years but the Kodachrome 25 ASA ones did the best.

Here are some of the more interesting (to me...) military ones. The shots were generally taken in the late 1960's and early-1970's although some are newer. They were taken in London, Malton (now Pearson), Downsview, Ottawa (Uplands), St. Catharines (1972 - Red Arrows), North Bay and Hamilton.

Enjoy.

Dave Irwin

Wow!! These are great pictures Dave. I've never even heard of a CAF Herc with JATO. The F-106's are very cool too.

Don't think I'll ever see many of these aircraft flying again. Looking forward to the way-back machine part II.
