Fortunately, I had just enough space, and my telephoto lens, for a picture of the photogenic aircraft at a good angle. The iconic Beaver was first flown in 1947. In 1987, the Canadian Engineering Centennial Board named the Beaver one of the top 10 Canadian engineering achievements of the 20th century.”
