June 8-9 2016: More Trenton Ontario, CA

Spent a few extra days in Trenton to get a new spring seal for the water pump on the generator. Of course had to get overnight delivery from Toronto and wait till the mechanic could install it after dinner - but all is well that ended well.

Took advantage of the extra day to visit the Royal Canadian Air Force Museum just a 10 minute cab ride away. Very nice indoor exhibits starting with the fist plane Canada had - a float plane for observation in WWI up to the modern day fighter jets. Cathy and Ger were able to climb into a couple of simulators and admire all the gauges - but they were older and not operating. Nice collection of planes and memorials to airmen outside also.

Canada's first aircraft!
