As some of you may or may not know, Bill Gregg also collected aircraft. Including a Yale or two from the auction.

Yale 3350 is now at the Canadian Warplane Heritage museum at Hamilton Ontario.

Many years ago I was employed by the War Museum to take a look at this haftrack during its restoration to see how well it was going. The person restoring it was needing more money and they wanted to just make sure it was almost complete. Very rear !
