    Covers
    FRONT: in this evocative pastel rendering, Tom Bjarnson has captured a Beaver taking off from a northern lake on the last flight of the day.  With luck, the pilot may be home before dark.

    BACK: the late Frank Russell (centre) supervises a wilderness engine  repair on one of Austin Airways' Norseman aircraft some 44 years ago.  Art Wahlroth, pilot of CF-ESP who brought Frank in, took the picture.  See P 4 for the full story.
