This folder contains a repaint for the A2A North American T-6 Texan/Harvard in the colors of Harvard Mk.4 C-FWPK of the Canadian Harvard Aircraft Association. Originally manufactured by the Canadian Car and Foundry, Fort William, Ontario, it entered Service with the RCAF on February 29, 1952. It was disposed of on July 30, 1967, and while with the RCAF, it served with 2 FTS Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan and No. 4 FTS Penhold, Alberta. Originally disposed of for $1,850, WPK spent several years flying out of Sault Ste Marie, Ontario. Jim Vernon of Oakville purchased WPK in the early 1970’s and was later flown as the #2 position in a 4-plane Goldilocks Formation for the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum. In 1978, it was bought by Norm & Kent Beckham and Bob Hewitt, and based out of Woodstock. WPK was purchased by CHAA in 1989.
