It's always very rewarding when there is a connection with our readers on one of our stories. Frequent contributor, Caz Caswell, sent in the following regarding Wayne's Wings article in NetLetter #1541.
 It was good to read your tale of C-FTOB, which we called ‘Toby’ at Wardair. I spent many days climbing up and down the steps in the corner of the hangar on Convair Drive, to photograph the transformation of ‘Toby’ into full Wardair colours.I have about 50 photographs, of which I have attached 8 for you; please feel free to use any if you wish.
The second photo shows maintenance humour; they put Kenny Allen’s name on it. Ken Allen was the Wardair maintenance engineer driving the project.
