Were you at Cloverdale Market Day on June 22? The Museum was – at the invitation of the Canadian Legion the Museum had its Sopwith Camel replica on display. Lots of people puzzled over the replica of a front line fighter from 100 years ago. Was it really so small – yes! Why was there a hole in the top wing? To allow the pilot better visibility ahead and above. And why did the machine guns not shoot the propeller off? You are going to have to come and visit us at the Museum to learn that one!
