History
After pooling their money to purchase a Fairey Firefly , Dennis Bradley, Peter Matthews, Alan Ness, and John Weir moved the aircraft into Hangar 4 at Hamilton Airport in 1972. A few years later, the museum purchased a second hangar, Hangar 3, as well. The collection was expanded with the acquisition of additional aircraft – including a B-25 in 1975 and a Lancaster in 1977. However, that same year Alan Ness was killed in the crash of a Fairey Firefly at the Canadian International Air Show .[7]
On February 15, 1993, a fire destroyed most of Hangar #3. Destroyed in the fire were also the Hawker Hurricane , General Motors TBM Avenger, Auster , Stinson 105 and Supermarine Spitfire . A new, purpose built hangar was completed in 1996 to replace it.[7]
In August and September 2014, the Mynarski Memorial Lancaster Bomber flew across the North Atlantic to RAF Coningsby to participate in six weeks of airshows and events across the United Kingdom. Unique to this tour, the Lancaster VeRA (as it became known due to its wartime VR-A markings) flew in close formation with the Royal Air Force – Battle of Britain Memorial Flight 's Lancaster bomber PA474 for most of the 60 displays and events over the two months of the tour.[8] Lancaster VeRA returned to Hamilton on September 29, 2014.[9]
