On Friday, September 8, the Air Force Museum Society of Alberta (AFMSA) welcomed to its collection a CF-101 Voodoo, once a Canadian mainstay from the 1960s to the 1980s in NATO’s showdown with the Soviets. The aircraft arrived at The Military Museums in Calgary on flatbed trucks from Edmonton’s Alberta Aviation Museum, joining a CF-104 Starfighter, a CF-18 Hornet, an F-86 Sabre, an F-5, and a T-33 trainer – all of which saw Cold War service.
