A Pioneering Amphibious Aircraft in a Niche Market
A Brief Pictorial Testimony

Canadair CL-215 celebrated the 50th anniversary of its maiden flight on October 23rd. By in 1967, the radial-engined aircraft took-off for the first time from Cartierville runway, Montreal’s old VFR airport in Canada, to signal a new era in forest firefighting. Its innovative approach to collect water by literally shaving water surfaces remains to this date unsurpassed.
