Back then it was called       Ontario Vocational Centre. I always hated that name because it sounded like       a reform school. That's probably why they changed it                            .        I could listen to the unmistakable       > roar of the four-engined Lancaster, the twin-engined Mitchell and the       > uniquely       > distinctive whine of the Harvard's supersonic propellor tips, and imagine       > that they were closer than they actually were.                            Not to make you feel bad but a couple weeks ago , a formation of 4 Harvards       flew directly over our house here in London. In fact they made several       passes and the last one was the missing man formation. They were obviously       honouring someone but I don't know who. If there's anything better than the       sound of a radial engine with it's supersonic prop tips , it's the sound of       4 radials . The sounds come in waves as they go in and out of phase with       each other.
