de Havilland D.H.82A Tiger Moth

11/29/2003. Remarks by Jacques Trempe: "From Collingwood Classic Aircraft Foundation (CCAF) web site I learned that this aircraft was built in 1943 by Morris Motors in Cowley, England when de Havilland facilities were converted to Mosquito bomber production. The aircraft was used by the RAF (s/n NM200) until April of 1946. Subsequently it went to the French AF, then to civil service in 1956 registered for various periods of time as F-BGCP, EI-AUB, N82JS, and finally C-GSTP. It was acquired by the CCAF (Collingwood Classic Aircraft Foundation) in 1991 and now sees frequent service providing "ride-along" flights for visitors to the foundation's facility in Ontario."
