For the Sabre Jet Jocks
Here's a couple of pages from the defunct RCAF magazine "The Roundel" dealing with the Sabre jet era.
The 1st may have a few familiar names (Richardson) for the 411 folks, as 411 pilots receive their Mach recognition. "Auxiliary" is what they called the Air Reserve then.
The 2nd piece is a tribute to the Sabre as it left service.

Rare AVRO Arrow film
Here's Star Trek's "Scotty" (James Doohan) doing a rare TV production just before the Arrow was cancelled. James Doohan was still working in Canada at this time. He was a RCAF pilot during WW2 & was known as "Bad Boy Doohan", as he use to fly between telephone poles! This rare Avro Arrow film & others can be obtained from www.avroarrow.org

CF100 Clunk project by Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum
This "Clunk" I knew well - standing for years on a pedestal beside the RCAFA Club at Hamilton Airport. Well in late October 2009, it was removed from its perch - apparently to be restored & added to the CWH Museum!
