Probably not going anwhere immediately..for one thing the maritimes are experiencing a blizzard right now after a year of record snowfall..about the 17th blizzard this season.. I think it will be late spring/summer before anything happens.
I am personally very glad it's going to the Alberta Aviation Museum..where it will be indoors and get a good restoration...especially since in just a few more years it would have collapsed -according to the expert..and the nose section broken off
Sad thing is, this was flying when parked..with the right money and care over the years it could have been the third flying example left...but even in the 1960s I guess not that many people were thinking that these war relics should -or were worthy- of restoration/preservation.
