There used to be (still is?) a complete Canso in a hangar not far from Kingston, Its been sitting there unused but not abandoned, for at least a couple of decades if not longer.
Don't know its history, apparently owned by someone out west but the story is vague to say the least.
Love to see it flying again...in Canada.


I know some Brits serveral years ago bought still airworthy former RCAF 1943 Canadian-built Canso, restored, renewed it and painted in in US markings as an OA-10B or some American designation..


When I wrote suggesting they could perhaps put a Canadian plane in Cdn colours, they were -not very friendly- to that idea.
