Tiger Moth, Montebello: A perfect winter wonderland aviation style

 

21st Challenger Winter Rendez-vous update, by Mary Lee

Bright sunshine, mild temperatures, light winds; all  CAVOK. The making for the perfect  Challenger Winter Rendez-vous event. To make the day all that more exciting, a stunning flypast of the de Havilland Tiger Moth, on time and on target. Dave Hadfield, pilot, wowed the crowd who gathered on the ice with four beautifully executed low passes over the ice covered river in front of the Fairmont Chateau Montebello. Simply breath-taking.
