Aero-Linx!

Scouring the information super airways can sometimes be a tough, if educational, task for the Aero-News staff... but it also allows us to check out some truly neat and exciting sites, so it's not that bad a gig. On any given day, we may check dozens (and often hundreds) of different sources for story ideas, and facts confirmation. And, as is the nature of our business, much of this is done on the Internet.

The ANN gang decided we probably shouldn't keep some of the neat sites, info resources, and organizations we've discovered to ourselves... so we decided to bring you Aero-Linx. These are the sites that WE check out -- when we need added perspective, a new spin on a day's topic... or just want to escape into cyber-aero-space for awhile.

Look for some of our favorite sites, coming each day to ANN via Aero-Linx. Suggestions for future Aero-Linx segments are always welcome, as well.

Aero-Linx: The Nanton Lancaster Society Air Museum

The Nanton Lancaster Society Air Museum is the only facility in Canada whose primary goal is to honor those who served with Bomber Command during World War II. Other goals include commemorating the activities of the British Commonwealth Air Training Plan in Alberta, working towards the complete restoration of the Ian Bazalgette Memorial Lancaster to its wartime configuration, collecting, restoreing, and exhibiting aircraft and artifacts related to Bomber Command and the BCATP, ano informing the public as to the contributions and sacrifices made by the men and women of Bomber Command and the BCATP.
