    It's too bad the Transport Canada database doesn't go that far back.

    Brilliant shot of the old airplane! Those guys had some courage to fly those things never mind fly them across snow covered landscape.

  • Provincial Archives of Alberta said:
    I wish we knew more about the circumstances of these photos, but that's probably what happened.
  • oaktree_brian_1976 said:
    oh, I thought we did know, I was just being silly. Wow, now it's even weirder.
  • Provincial Archives of Alberta said:
    It was definitely an accident of some kind, but I am not sure if the plane over-shot its landing or if it was parked and gradually fell into the ice as it melted.
  • Swordscookie said:
    Is it definitively ice? Could it be a snowdrift that covered it???
