That's sad to see these classics disappear from the skies, the old Buffalo's were always my favourite visitors to CZNL. Great shot of this historic last flight, they had an impressive career with the RCAF and will be missed.
Thanks. Yeah, I was really bummed that I wasn't able to make it to Comox for the last flight. The Buffalo can do so many things the Kingfisher can't, like flying into Nelson. Really is a shame they are gone.
Thank you, me too! It could be a while though. There are actually C-130Hs from Winnipeg that will be the "temporary" replacement for the Buffalo while some issues are ironed out with the Kingfishers.
LAMENTÁVEL E MUITO TRISTE SER ASSIM. SE EU DISPUSESSE DE CAPACIDADE FINANCEIRA SEGURA E SUFICIENTE PARA COMPRAR E MANTER ESTE PROJETO ATUALIZADO E ATIVO, SERIA O MEU ÚLTIMO GRANDE GRANDE PRAZER NESTA VIDA. 👌🏻🍀🇧🇷🙏🏻
I worked on the prototype at Downsview,1963. My rivets held the unloading ramp together!
A wonderful old bird. Spent half my 21 year career working on them. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.

That's a lot of snow for Pat Bay!
One of the greatest airplanes built in Canada. 😀
Couldn't agree more! It's a shame they are basically gone from the skies now.
My first spotter training flight was in 452, from Victoria, 2.22.97. How fitting that the same plane made the last Buffalo takeoff from here.
What they replace them with will be no comparison!!
Absolutely top shots 👍👍
Thanks 👍
Magnifique décollage je présume émotionnelle! Du CC-115 Buffalo!
J’aurait aimé entendre la tour de contrôle.
Awesome video can't wait to see the kingfisher's start flying into yyj

..mantaap Bufalo..
Wonderful catch. Sad to see them go
Thanks, for sure.
Why it's final flight? DC-3's are still flying.
That's a good question. I personally think they could have been update, or a newer version could have been made.
