Runway visit...
Our photography club went to the Airport area of Kelowna to visit the Barry Lapointe Flightcraft Museum . (can you see me?) Does this building look like a plane to you with a runway, two wings and a fuselage??
Barry Lapointe who has been inducted into the Canadian Order of Achievement..spent his younger years in the Okanagan flying and growing his expanding company starting with a small repair shop, modifying planes for transport with Purolator, pilot and Air Force training programs, and the list goes on and on..
Extra 1: a view of various engines looking into the working hanger ..
Extra 2: Mosquito...absolutely fascinating history..
Extra 3: these are the two hangers on each side of the main entrance..lots of natural wood was used in this building..as Barry wanted.
