      It'll be hard to get one flying again as I heard they cut the bolts that would prevent them from flying, effectively clipping thier wings. But, if you do get one flying again I would tip my hat to you sir. You would have my eternal gratitude.

      Best luck to you, I find these craft a important part of canadian identity. We are not a post national country like Trudeau would have people believe and the Cf 100 along with our contributions globally to world peace are something unique to Canada and a source of national pride

      Was he ever concerned about its ejection seat, which would sometimes randomly eject the pilot uncommanded or had that been fixed?

    This may not be the last Cf-100 to fly, there is a team that is restoring one to flight status.

    I refuelled a CF-100 in CFB North Bay in the late 1970's. I believe that 414 Squadron flew the last CF-100 and CF-101 (EF-101B).

      You are correct. That black CF-100 flew several years after this "last" flight.

    Imagine if they just suddenly decided to shower Montreal with rockets on its last flight just for kicks and to say it had flown a combat mission.
