RCAF 419 75th Anniversary CT-155
Posted: 06 Jun 2016, 21:07
In honour of 419 “City of Kamloops” Squadron’s 75th anniversary, the squadron unveiled their newly painted CT-155 Hawk during a ceremony on June 2, 2016, at 4 Wing Cold Lake, Alberta.
The paint scheme was designed by artist Jim Belliveau of 4 Wing, and captures snapshots of the Second World War history of this highly decorated unit. The aircraft is a CT-155 Hawk from the fleet of NATO Flying Training in Canada (NFTC) Hawk trainers used to teach fighter lead-in training in Cold Lake, Alberta, the current home of 419 Squadron and the Moosemen, as they have been affectionately known since Second World War. NFTC contractor CAE agreed to facilitate the painting in honour of the anniversary.
Will upload this and the other 2 ones ive recently done at the weekend!
Much thanks
Mark
