Bushplane

Picture of the Day: A Top 10 Classic

By General Aviation News Staff · June 30, 2026 · Leave a Comment

Gord McNulty submitted this photo and note: “It was overcast, unfortunately, when I visited the Canadian Bushplane Heritage Centre at Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, recently. A de Havilland Canada DHC-2 Beaver, of Killarney Air Services, stood out at the dock on the St. Mary’s River, but fencing around the ramp made a photo more challenging. 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.”
