No Joke!

Yes, I know it's April Fool's Day but it's also the birthday of the Royal Canadian Air Force.  This year marks the 90th anniversary of the RCAF. I know my Dad would have been flying his Air Force Roundel flag. He was very proud of being in the Air Force.


Dad loved all things to do with aviation. I think that he took pictures of any aircraft that he saw and had loads of books too.  


This is the current Roundel flag of the RCAF. I have one like this, someday I'm going to put a flag pole out front so that I can fly it. Dad's flag was the old Roundel with the Union Jack in the corner where the Canadian flag is on this one.

Dad's probably proudly waving the flag today on this beautiful sunny first day of April. Happy Air Force Birthday Dad!
