Something different. I'd meant to get this ready for the Book/Movie/Game GB but ...

Comment on Kenneth Molson's great work,
Canadian Aircraft Since 1909,* often bemoans its lack of Putnam-style 3-view drawings. But there is a greater omission - a single page on B.W. Bandy's
Gander Experimental Mk.I amphibian.
Since the
Gander prototype was built in the US, Molson intended to cover the Bandy aircraft in the Appendices. Somehow, the assigned page number (pg 524) was forgotten by the typesetter. Instead of being slotted in between the Avro
Avian and the Grumman G-23
Goblin as planned, the Bandy
Gander entry was left out all together.
Fortunately, the omitted galley page was rescued from the archives of Putnam's printer (that would be the blue recycling bin out the back). This is an irreplaceable and priceless piece of Canadian aviation history ... so, naturally, it will be open for bids on eBay next week
