Owned and used by Canadian film maker Bill Mason who achieved international recognition for his wilderness and canoeing documentaries in the 1960s and 1970s. To record cine images on photographic film. The Bill Mason collection consists of typical cameras and other equipment in the 16 mm format widely used by documentary film makers in Canada in this period. Due to its relatively light weight (touted by the maker as the world's lightest) and reflex view finding system the Beaulieu R16 was marketed as a news camera although company literature also suggested it was ideal for industrial and scientific film making. Called by one authority a "reasonably sturdy well designed versatile beautifully finished and easy-to-use machine " the Beaulieu was less expensive than such competitors as the Arriflex 16BL and √âclair NPR cameras although also not as quiet or robust (Lipton 132). The Beaulieu reflex viewfinder system consists of a mirror on the reciprocating shutter that directs light passing through the lens to a ground glass viewing screen during intervals when the shutter is closed. Unlike the more limited reflex viewer on the Cin√© Special this system enables accurate focus and depth of field evaluation while filming even when zooming or switching from one subject to another. A built-in reflex photocell meanwhile displays a light reading in the viewfinder to guide the operator in adjusting the diaphragm setting. Unlike the spring-driven Cin√© Special the Beaulieu R16 is powered by a transistor regulated electric motor that provides stability over a range of speeds (2-64 fps) while a sync pulse socket enables connection and synchronous operation with an audio tape recorder (although Mason appears not to have used the Beaulieu for synchronous sound filming). The drive train offers a variety of standard special effects features: reverse drive for fades and dissolves single frame filming for animation and time lapse photography and variable speed for slow and fast motion sequences.

The airplane represented by the model i.e. the fictional Fireflash nuclear powered hypersonic airliner (Mach 6) has no direct link to Canada. This being said the TV series for which the Fireflash was created Thunderbirds a mid 1960s British tweenage / teenage series set in the mid 1960s made with realistic string puppets was shown in Canada as was a French language version called Les Sentinelles de l¬íair. This translation may have been done in Qu√©bec if only because the series was shown there in the late 1960s whereas French viewers had to wait until the mid 1970s. The series was typical of its time in that it showed a future full of promise and high tech gadgets. There is anecdotal evidence to the effect that a number of aeronautical engineers in the U.K. found the series amusing. It is quite likely that some aeronautical engineers in Canada enjoyed it as well. Incidentally the puppet representing former astronaut / father figure Jeff Tracy the head of International Rescue a secret organization dedicated to saving people all over the globe was modeled after Canadian actor Lorne Greene father figure of the popular U.S. TV series Bonanza which was running at the time. The voice of Scott Tracy one of the pilots of International Rescue was that of Canadian character actor Shane Rimmer. Rimmer went on to have a long association with the creator of Thunderbirds Gerry Anderson. Display. While the model as such has no real technical significance being made of wood the airliner it represents i.e. the Fireflash was a fictional example of a high speed airliner created for a 1960s TV series set in the 1960s. Supersonic airliners were very much in the news at the time. The Franco-British programme which led to the development of Concorde for example was announced in late 1962 for example. In mid 1963 the U.S. launched a National Supersonic Transport programme. Boeing Airplane¬ís airplane design won a design competition in late 1966. In the Soviet Union development of the Tupolev Tu 144 was approved in mid 1963. It was widely thought that hundreds of supersonic airliners would be flying in the 1970s. Air Canada for example was planning to order both the Concorde and the Boeing 2707. In the end the supersonic airliner turned out to be a white elephant. Only a few aircraft were built: 20 Concordes and 15 or so Tu 144s. The Boeing 2707 was canceled in 1971 before it even flew. Only the Concordes flew for any length of time. Nuclear power on airplanes on the other hand did not proceed beyond ground trials of engines. The American nuclear aircraft program was canceled in 1961. The U.S.S.R. abandoned its own projects in the mid 1960s.

Canada Ontario Downsview 1941       2 Various.     The Tiger Moth was first and foremost a military trainer and was used mainly for elementary pilot training in the British Commonwealth Air Training Plan . Modifications were made to the basic design to adapt it better to Canadian conditions. Many Canadian Tiger Moths were sold as war surplus and some are still flying in the 1990s. Canadian-built Tiger Moths were modified by adding wheel-brakes a tail-wheel a stronger undercarriage with the wheels set slightly forward and a cockpit that could be closed by a sliding hood. One of the best known trainers in Second World War the Tiger Moth was used by the air forces of Britain Canada Australia Brazil Denmark Iraq New Zealand Persia Portugal South Africa Southern Rhodesia and Sweden. Many flying clubs were re-equipped after Second World War with surplus Tiger Moths some of which were bought for as little as $25 (without instruments).

Canada Ontario Downsview         1       In the event that U-boat attacks caused a break in supply of British-made engines to Canada American-built Menasco engines were installed in some Canadian-built Tiger Moths. This is the major difference between the Menasco and Tiger Moths. Because this engine could drive a large generator most Menasco Moths were used for radio training. The Menasco engine was not as powerful as the Gypsy engine resulting in a somewhat reduced performance. This loss of power made the Menasco Moth a less than ideal pilot-training airplane and contributed to the Menasco Moth being used almost exclusively for radio training.

Canada Ontario Downsview 1945   before   2       Early in Second World War de Havilland applied their woodworking expertise to the development of a wooden bomber so fast that it would not need defensive armament. The result was the Mosquito a most remarkable aircraft. The amazingly adaptable design was effective for day and night fighting day and night bombing anti-shipping attack and photo reconnaissance. Canada built a total of 1 013 during the war and 100 postwar with 205 going to Nationalist China in 1947-48. The bomber version of the Mosquito could deliver the same bomb-load to distant targets as the four-engined Boeing B-17. Mosquitos were also used as high-speed transports by British Overseas Airways Corporation (BOAC) to maintain communication with neutral Sweden and bring back strategic items such as ball-bearings. Passengers if any rode in the bomb bay. Because of the glued-and-screwed wooden construction early Mosquitoes were not suited to the tropics where exposure to high humidity and rain caused the airframe to warp and the glue to dissolve.

Canada Ontario Downsview         1       When the RCAF began to expand in the late 1940s both elementary and advanced pilot-training depended upon the North American Harvard. It was soon recognized that a simpler aircraft was required for elementary pilot-training. The Chipmunk was chosen for this role. Many of the 217 Chipmunks made in Canada went to the RCAF but Canadian Chipmunks were also sent to Egypt Lebanon and Thailand. Britain made 1 000 Chipmunks and Portugal 66 under licence. The Chipmunk was the first Canadian-designed aircraft to be made abroad under licence. Some civilian Chipmunks have been provided with more powerful engines to enhance their aerobatic capability and have been used in international aerobatic competitions.

It was not sold but retained by the company for test and development work. De Havilland Canada donated it to the Museum in 1981.   The Twin Otter a twin-engine modified and enlarged version of the Otter was a successful attempt to produce a commuter airliner with parts in common with the Otter. As with all good Canadian utility aircraft designs Twin Otters can be fitted with wheels skis or floats. Though designed and used as intercity commuter or feeder liners they are also operated as bush airplanes in deserts mountains and the Arctic or anywhere where rugged reliability and short-take-off-and-landing capability are required. In the Arctic Twin Otters are sometimes flown on "tundra tires" - huge low-pressure balloon-tires that can operate on and off soft boggy ground.

Canada Ontario Downsview 1947       1     A RELIABLE AND ECONOMICAL LIGHT UTILITY TRANSPORT FOR BUSH FLYING ON WHEEL SKIS OR FLOATS The Fox Moth was designed in England in 1932 as a light economic transport and was built using as many Tiger Moth components as possible. Fox Moths were produced in Canada after the Second World War mainly to keep the plant in production but also to satisfy the increasing need for new bush aircraft. All the Canadian modifications made to the Tiger Moth were also applied to the Fox Moth. Of the 53 produced 39 remained in Canada most of which were operated in float/ski configuration and gave years of satisfactory service. The Fox Moth though efficient was a bit of an anachronism. For example a modern moulded- plexiglas sliding cockpit-hood was attached to what was essentially a 1932 aircraft. Communication between the passenger cabin in the fuselage and the cockpit to the rear was through a hole in the instrument panel. De Havilland designed a special stretcher for the Fox Moth in order that it could operate as an air ambulance.

The first 27 Moths came to Canada from England in 1927. By 1928 de Havilland Aircraft of Canada began to assemble and to service Moth aircraft in Toronto. During the 1930s there were more Moths on the Canadian Register than any other type and they became a standard trainer in the RCAF. Very few pilots trained during the 1930s would not have flown Moths. The D.H. 60 Moth was the first in a long line of extremely successful light sporting biplanes. D.H. Moths were used for several long-distance flights including two from England to Australia in 1930 and a flight across the Tasman Sea in 1931. The first Moth came to Canada in 1927 and was used in the Hudson Strait Expedition Aviation Aircraft               wood->;fibre->;metal->;resin->rubber 7.2 M 8.8 M 2.6 M       http://source.techno-science.ca/artifacts-artefacts/images/1967.0650.001.aa.cs.png http://source.techno-science.ca/artifacts-artefacts/images/1967.0650.001.aa.cs.thumb.png  
2859 1967.0654.001 Airplane   de Havilland DH-100 Vampire Mk.3 EEP42392 de Havilland Aircraft Co. Ltd. England   Middlesex         1       Production of the Vampire started just too late for Second World War. This very successful design was produced in several versions and flew with the air forces of more than 15 countries. In 1948 it was the first Jet fighter to enter the Royal Canadian Air Force. Here as in other air forces it introduced fighter pilots not only to jet flying but also to cockpit pressurization and the tricycle landing gear. A simple rugged design the last Vampires were not phased out of the Swiss Air Force until the late 1980s. In developing the Vampire de Havilland applied its expertise in wood construction to manufacture a fuselage of the same type of plywood/balsa wood sandwich used in the Mosquito. The Vampire¬ís twin-boom configuration enabled the jet tail pipe to remain short in order to extract as much thrust as possible from the somewhat low-powered engines of the day. The prototype sea Vampire was the first jet aircraft to fly from an aircraft carrier.
