The final two flights from 100th anniversary of Canadian flight. A recreation of the first heavier-than-air aircraft to fly in Canada and the British Empire. This re-enactment took place on February 22, 2009 near Alexander Graham Bell's home Bein Breigh, on Baddeck Bay, Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia. The pilot was former Canadian Astronaut (STS-85), Bjarni Tryggvason.

  • Thank you. You guys were pretty impressive. The only thing is, I wish you guys were flying up-rated AVRO Arrows instead of CF-18s, but that was a decision from the 50th anniversary of the Dart. Just glad you guys made the 100th anniversary so special. It was absolutely thrilling seeing the juxtaposition of the old and new aircraft in the air at the same time.

    Take care,

    Joey

  • Thank you very much for posting this video. I am a member of the 2009 Century of Flight CF-18 Hornet that went overhead while you were filming... Our team spent weeks getting the jet ready for that moment. I hope you enjoyed it... It darn near brought a tear to my eye...

    Cheerz,

    Dave
