Also first 104's (not Canadian) had ejection seats that fired out the bottom. Took my trades training on Harvards and CF100. Last base was Moose Jaw so throw Tudors in too. Even had a little heavy with Daks and C119. Choppers like Twin Huey and Labs. We had a large and varied inventory in the late 50's and early 60's. Thanks for the memories.
