EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "CF-CXC: A Classic Chipmunk Takes Flight" 2.. The de Havilland Canada DHC1B-2-S3 Chipmunk, registration CF-CXC, is seen here in its element as it gracefully ascends into the clear blue sky. This iconic aircraft, manufactured by de Havilland Canada between 1947 and 1953, is a testament to the rich history of aviation. The Chipmunk, a primary trainer, was designed to provide pilots with essential flying skills, making it a popular choice for both civilian and military training programs. Its distinctive appearance, with its rounded wings and tail, sets it apart from other trainer aircraft of its time. CF-CXC, specifically, was delivered new to the Royal Canadian Air Force in 1951 and later transferred to the Canadian Air Force Central Flying School in 1958. It continued to serve in various roles until its retirement in 1982. After a brief stint in storage, the Chipmunk was restored to its former glory and returned to the skies, once again bringing joy to aviation enthusiasts. This photograph captures the essence of the Chipmunk's timeless design and the thrill of flight. The image serves as a reminder of the enduring allure of aviation and the importance of preserving the history of these classic aircraft. 3.
