Kamloops Airport /Fulton Field

Trip out to the airport this evening.   Wish I was going somewhere but have to work to support my travelling habit.
The airport is named after John "Moose" Fulton who was the Squadron Leader  of 419 Squadron during the 2nd world War. He was killed on return from a mission but was so respected that the Squadron was named after him.  419 Squadron is in Cold Lake Alberta but continues to have strong ties with the city of Kamloops where Moose grew up. The CF 5 is on display outside is a gift from the Squadron.
