Refurbished war plane to do Flypast Remembrance Day

This Remembrance Day in addition to wearing a poppy and laying a wreath, you might want to keep your eyes to the skies. A local pilot who restored an old war plane will be doing a flypast over the November 11 ceremonies in Stirling, Raymond, Coaldale and Lethbridge, Alberta

BCN’s Jeannette Rocher went to see the refurbished plane and talk to its owner/pilot.
