The Martin "Hawaii Mars" going to the BC Aviation Museum, at what is now the airport for Victoria BC, located near Sidney BC, and was the former RCAF Station Pat Bay. In speaking with their Curator last year, she stated that it would have to be brought across the airfield and there are some obstacles that create complications. This museum is restoring a Lancaster bomber "FM104" by the way. https://bcam.net/

The second one, "Philippine Mars", is painted in USN blue and in US markings is going to the Pima Air Museum. I am not sure how they can manage that given their location! https://www.cheknews.ca/coulson-avia...ver%20produced.

I have seen both of them, but they were both up on shore at the time.
