Douglas A-26 Invader War Bird
 |
We recently acquired this A-26 Invader war bird from Mackie Transport Ltd. Many local people may remember the plane when it sat atop the Mackie building in Oshawa, visible from the 401. It has been a landmark there for the past 26 years.
This American, 22-gun attack plane was used in World War II and was flown from Arizona to Toronto in 1973. We are in the process of gathering research on the history of the aircraft which will be available on our site when complete. We are planning to do a cosmetic restoration to the Invader over the next year. Once it's complete, we will display it in our parking lot with picnic tables around it so that people can continue to enjoy it. Watch for new photos over the next year showing the progress we are making with the cosmetic restoration. |
