Aviation Week--Norseman V Float Plane

So this is the second of two planes that sit out front of the Aviation Museum. This is a Norseman V Float Plane. Edmonton is known as the Gateway to the North and has a long history connected with Bush Pilots who would have flown from Edmonton up to the Canadian Arctic and this is an example of the type of plane that they would have used. The building in the background is part of Hanger 14 which houses the Museum

Very interesting looking plane. My husband is very interested in planes. He would love to see the museum.

[Cathie]

Fun photo, Brian. I like the pov and paint job on the plane. Also fun to think about Edmonton as the gateway for bush pilots. I always love learning things on 365.

[Kerri]

Cool shot

[Shirley Chetwynd]

Well captured Brian.

[Mrs. Smith]

I really like the perspective of this picture!

[Kd Wallis]

So neat looking!!! I like its colors, great shot! How has your weather been the last few days down there? I am located 5 hours north of you and we have gotten quite a bit of rain but today was hot and windy!

[Rufus]

Wonderful photo! I would love to take off from a lake in one of those!!

[Maggiemae]

I can imagine the sound that this plane would have made! Great to see it in the air even if it isn't flying!

[Gena Pegg]

Great POV of this very interesting plane. Great colors and so nicely presented with great commentary!!

[Anne ❀]

great view and info, thanks for sharing

[Linda]

Interesting plane. Nice shot.

[Tony]

Looks almost ready to launch into the sky. Thanks for the info, much appreciated.

[Darlene]

Another great shot, Brian. Love the way this is also displayed. I love the colors of this one.

[Sandi]

I see why it's called the floating plane with the intriguing landing devices--how neat to see them. I imagine that it would be very cold in the Arctic, but it doesn't look as if it's made to land on ice, just water or maybe even snow? The Aviation Museum sounds so interesting!

[Maaikel]

Love the floatplanes! Never been on one but it reminds to my visit of Victoria, bc

[Ann H. LeFevre]

This one is very nicely captured. You can see the detail well and the sky is a nice reminder that this "bird" once flew there.

[Fisher Family]

Great pov - the way the plane is mounted on the stand is great for photographs. Looks like a really fascinating museum!
