Front:
In this atmospheric rendering, artist Geoff Bennett captures an RCAF McDonnell Voodoo as it intercepts a Russian Tupolev Tu-50 Bear eerily materializing through the hazy atmosphere.

Back: Jerry Vernon took this shot of Supermarine (Canadian Vickers) Stranraer CF-BX0 on one of the old Vancouver Airport seaplane ramps on 13 October ‘62. Subsequently ‘BXO was transported to the UK and restored by the RAF Museum at Hendon.
