Grumman Tracker

Larry Milberry, Aviation in Canada, McGraw-Hill Ryerson 1979
de Havilland Canada built 99 Grumman Tracker aircraft in the late fifties. The anti-submarine aircraft were transferred to land bases after the carrier Bonaventure was retired. A handful survived into the nineties, ending their life serving on fishery patrols.
 This 1962 photo was in Oshawa taken as the plane's wings were folding down.
