My favourite ship in Halifax harbour.
HMCS Sackville, the only remaining Flower class corvette. We also drove through Sackville on the way here.

Andrew! You're in my part of the world (except I'm in Florida until Monday on a flying visit). Enjoy NS. If you get the chance and want to browse an amazing selection of kits for sale, get to the Atlantic Aviation Museum near the airport.

Thanks for sharing.
HMCS Sackville was the inspiration for my entry in the 2016 "C"ompact "D"iorama GB ( https://uamf.org.uk/viewtopic.php?p=272852#p272852 ), a rare spike in my usually flat creativity curve.

That's a lovely shot, are there any more?
Best wishes

If you can walk away from a landing, it's a good landing. If you use the airplane the next day, it's an outstanding landing

I was pushing David in his wheelchair, so I wasn't able to go aboard this time!

I will see if I can find my photos from our 2019 visit, when I went aboard.

Re: HMCS Sackville
The ship/museum website has numerous pix - she is well-photographed.
