14 Wing Greenwood hasseen incredible growth intechnology over the lastseveral years. In fact, thetotal number of computershas more than doubled since1999. In addition, the

14 Wing Telecommunications and Information Services Squadron

Pte LeMoyne tuning a radio.

capacity of these machines has increasedby orders of magnitude. This is all goodnews for the users, but who takes care of allof this equipment? The answer is WingTelecommunications and InformationServices Squadron (WTISS). This unit hasroughly 90 members.

These technicians takecare of just about all theelectronic systems on thebase. This includes all of theground-based radios, radarsystems, computers,servers, network equipment,cables, cell phones,messaging systems,cryptographic equipmentand of course BlackBerries!

Most of WTISS is in 4Hangar, but there are alsopeople in 9 Hangar, theHornell Centre and the AirTraffic Control centre.

The Area SurveillanceRadar is also maintained byWTISS. You can see thisradar from just aboutanywhere in the area; it’s thelarge tower with a dome onthe North Mountain. Ourtechnicians are up there on aregular basis to performpreventative maintenance.

The Squadron also mansthe radars located at Sydneyand Barrington. Thesetechnicians are reservistswho live in the nearbycommunities. Their drive towork isn’t that bad, but ittakes them a while to get toCFB Greenwood when theyhave appointments on base!

WTISS also deploys! Infact, roughly 20% of theSquadron will depart with 14

Wing’s Mission Support Squadron for sixweeks this summer and for six months nextwinter. This will, unfortunately, have animpact to the level of service we provide tothe Wing.

Still wondering how many computers thereare on base? There are over 2,300

workstations and laptops,and the number is constantlygrowing! We hope that thesemachines don’t give you anyproblems, but if they do,please drop by our servicedesk located at the front of 4Hangar.

A great deal of repair workhad been completed while itsat inverted on the skid, andit was now time to lift it, rotateit 180 degrees and place it rightside up with the wheels on theground, and close to where itwill match it up with thefuselage.

Many thanks to CplsRoberts and Arsenault andMr. Evans of MSE for theirexpertise and equipment. Wecouldn’t have done it withoutyou and you’ve shown onceagain that you are the liftingexperts.

For more information on Shocks and Struts contactJim at Greenwood Canadian Tire 765-6337.

Whenever you inspectthe suspension system,you should test the shockabsorbers or struts, saysJim Luddington, ServiceManager for CanadianTire Greenwood. The testshould be performed withthe car on the ground, not

when the car is beingsupported on a jack or hoist.

The way to test the rearand front shocks, Jim says,is by bouncing each cornerof the car manually. Rockthe car at each corner andrelease. If the car bouncesmore than 1 ½ times afteryou have stopped rocking

it, take a closer look atthe shocks.

If the car bouncesmore than it should,raise the car up on ajack. Run your handover the tire tread

completelyaround

the tire and from inside tooutside. Cupping orunusual wear in any areaindicates the shocks manynot be holding the tires onthe road. Look for brokenmounts, damagedbushings, and oil on theshock absorber barrel.Then proceed to grab theshock and shake firmly.This may show damage tothe mounting or bushingnot visible at first sight. Agreat amount of fluid on theoutside of the shockabsorber housing indicatesa leaking seal. Fluidcannot be replaced and

One indicator of aneed to replace the strut/shock is oil leakage at thepiston rod seal. Alsoconduct a bounce test.During the bounce test,carefully observe the topstrut mount. Any noise ormovement here canindicate the need for partsreplacement.

14 AMS AMO 2 Crew – LtNadia Kang

AMO 2 Crew has beenkeeping so busy we haven’thad time to send out anupdate. We’re still busy, butwe don’t want to leave you inthe dark about the latest andgreatest events of yourfavourite crew.

Retirement was tootempting to pass up for twofamiliar faces. Sgt MikeMelanson is now Mr.

Melanson and has beenpromoted to Mr. Mom untilhis career in dance takes off.MCpl Doug Meltz is now MrMeltz, at present working inthe Halifax area. We wish themboth the best of luck in theirnew endeavours.

Faster than we losemembers to retirement, the 2Crew family continues toexpand quickly with the birthsof several babies.Congratulations go out to CplTucesku, Cpl McCallum andCpl Sills on your bundles ofjoy.

Congratulations are also inorder a few of our personnel.I was promoted to full Lt from2Lt just prior to the Christmasbreak at the 14 AMSChristmas bash. Congrats toCpl Chris Boudreau whofinally was promoted to MCplafter a long wait due to paperwork and technical difficulties.Pte Sebastien Gasseau is nowCpl Gasseau and Pte Truchonnow has a nice hook on hispreviously empty flap.Congratulations to you both.

Perhaps more promotionsare in the works now thatpersonnel evaluation seasonis upon us and is evident in

the new descriptive wordspopping in people’svocabulary and the glazed-over look of those who havespent too long staring into acomputer screen. MWOPrice’s brain still seems to befunctioning after readingdozens of PERs, and turningfifty years old this Februaryhas not seemed to slow himdown.

Speaking of keeping us onour toes, Cpl SteveCummings and Cpl JasonCheeke expertly organizedcrew sports days which gave2 Crew members the chanceto hone their skills at hockey,snowshoeing, and a newsport – curling in the dark –created by Cpl Johnston’scuriosity around lightswitches.

14 AMS AMSO Shops –MCpl Don Harvie

COMP SHOPThe Component Shop,

which has been running witha skeleton crew, finally hassome meat added to its’ boneswith the addition of two newfaces. Cpl Nick Skipper (youwould think with a name like

that he would have been anatural for the Navy - but hehas an Army background) hasjoined us, as well as Pte DanMajor, who is fresh from hisAVN course in Borden. Alsoreturning for his second stintin the shop to ‘beef up’ themanpower is Cpl Kerry Gidge.His previous experience isdefinitely a welcome asset asthe seats and tires keep pilingup. Meanwhile, Sgt AndyBillard has sprouted severalmore grey hairs as he dealswith IRP over his impendingrelease and Sgt Alain Bilodeauis expected to return to hisoffice soon, after being awayon training for an upcomingdeployment.

Periodic MaintenanceWith aircraft 106 finally out

the door, work on the nextAurora, aircraft 105, has begunin earnest. The hard workingARO team has slimmed downconsiderably, missing some oftheir valued members, startingat the top. MWO BruceHarkness has departed theReg. Force to take up a positionin the Reserves at ARAF (AirReserve Augmentation Flight),Cpl Jessy Bouchard and PteChris Nuefeld are both off tostart their Flight Systemcourse, while Cpl JonathanBedard will be taking the Prop

course, where he should besafe from breaking any moreof his bones. Away from theaircraft is Pte Cormier who ison T.S.F training. Welcomeback to Cpls Trevor Sharpe andRob Bennett, who have beendeployed to Sigonella, Italy. Itsounds like it was fun, but theymay not want to see anotherplate of spaghetti andmeatballs for a while.

Closer to home,congratulations goes out toCpl Ian Davenport andSpouse, who have welcomedthe arrival of their 1st child, anadorable bouncing baby boy.He appears to be handling thesituation well and isremarkably composed, allthings considered.

Cpl Nathaniel Afonso,minus his fine looking WinterCarnival beard, is lookingforward to getting ‘wired’ oncompany time on hisupcoming Capton WiringRepair course.

Still more missing AROmembers are; Cpl TerryPowers, who is on an ALSE(aircraft life supportequipment) course inpreparation for a posting toGander NFLD. and Cpl ReneAddicott, who is high up in themountains of B.C. on ExerciseSilver, in support of theupcoming Olympics.

AVN Labs/ Battery ShopThe game of musical

technicians continues in theAVN lab as Cpl TrevorJohnston is off to start a propcourse. His replacement will bea new arrival from Borden, PteMarc Piche (another fresh

young mind for MCpl’s DougKennie and Greg Gillis and CplCarl Lyman to mould into abattery technicianextraordinaire). Also arriving tothe AVN Lab is Cpl ConstantinStan from Borden. He saw thelight and re-mustered fromArmy Supply technician to theAir force.

ENGINE BAYEngine Bay has taken on a

multinational flavour recentlywith the arrival of three newPAT Privates from Borden. PtePierre-luc Leguellec (“I’mEuropean French,” he states.),Pte Ivan Ponomarev, who istrying teach the others to singB. B. King tunes in Russian,and Pte Josh Bowles, whosimply refers to himself as“Canadian”.

Also joining Engine Bay willbe Cpl Shaun Malone, a re-muster to the AVN trade whowill be arriving soon fromBorden. Meanwhile, Cpl ChrisClarke is temporarily away ona run-up course.

To sum up the current stateof affairs, I will quote an EngineBay MCpl whose voice washeard echoing off the toolboards, “Just another greatday in the Air Force.”

Separation and divorce involvea process that can continue forseveral years. The periodfollowing a formal separationinvolves many life changes thatcan impact every area of a parent’slife. Reaching out for support for

your personal needs duringseparation and divorce will makeyou better able to respond to theneeds of your child. Fortunately,at the GMFRC, there are manyvery good contemporary booksand resources for parents andchildren available. Topics such asdating after divorce, remarriage,blended families and stepparenting are covered in books,videos, and workbooks. The

GMFRC staff also holds regularparent information sessions. Anewly offered support group forsingle divorced or separatedparents is also being formed. TheCoordinator of Child, Youth andParenting Services, Kim Dixon isalso available to meet one on one,by appointment with parents.

Divorce can be difficult forchildren. Knowing more abouthow children experience

separation and divorce based ontheir stage of development willhelp. For instance, if you do notlive with your children, it issometimes easy to believe thatyou are not necessary to thatchild any longer. Children needand want both parents in theirlives. Children who have losttouch with one parent willexhibit symptoms of grief andloss in a variety of different

ways. Just knowing that theparent loves them, and is stillwilling to act as a supportiveparent has a huge effect on achild’s well being and self-esteem. Remember you cannotbe replaced! It is important tokeep the following in mind:

Be consistent and reliable.Your children count on you todo what you say you will do.

Discipline should be consistent– don’t ignore it and don’t overdo it. As your child grows, sowill your relationship with her/

him. Young children need to bewith you more frequently, whileteenagers will want more timewith their friends. Invite yourchild to bring along a friend onplanned activities. Take lots ofpictures and give them a set ofprints. Send your child letters,postcards or email. Stay in touch.All these reminders showchildren how much you lovethem.

When children move betweenhomes, they are constantlyreminded that the family is nolonger together. Help easetransition by allowing your childto take personal belongings fromone home to the other. Byworking together with yourchild’s other parent, you can helpmake you child feel safe andsecure in both homes.

Remember that you arebuilding a relationship with yourchild that will last forever. HealthCanada has published awonderful handbook for parentswho are dealing with separationand divorce called, Because lifegoes on… This helpful andinformative resource discussesways to help children and youthlive with separation and divorce.If you would like any informationon this or other parenting topics,or would like to make anappointment, please contact KimDixon, Coordinator of Child,Youth and Parenting Services atthe GMFRC at 765-1494loc.1812.

reported: “February, theBrown-headed Cowbirds aregone, but there have been lotsof Common Redpolls and theNorthern Cardinal keepsvisiting.” Sheila also saw;Common Raven, Downy &Hairy Woodpeckers, White &Red-breasted Nuthatches,Brown Creeper, EveningGrosbeak(m,f), Blue Jay, Dark-eyed Junco, AmericanGoldfinch: 10-20 birds seenmost days during 1st 2 weeks,occasional sightings for restof month, Pine Siskin, PurpleFinch : no sightings, RockPigeon, no Song Sparrows or

On Mar 8, Tony Chaulkwrote: “Saw my first A. Robin,Red-winged Blackbird(RWBB) & Brown HeadedCowbird (BHCB) today. Mustbe the first signs of spring forme! The Redpolls are stillaround. I suppose they will be

heading North with thewarmer weather? A lot ofwoodpecker pairs this winterare a good sign as well as apair of White BreastedNuthatches. What hashappened to the Red BreastedNuthatches?” The redpollsare an irruptive species andwill likely stay with us as longas the food supply holds out:we are still seeing plenty ofcatkins. On Mar. 5, in FalesRiver Subdv: we saw 100+ C.Redpolls that were takingadvantage of Birch Catkinsand 4 feeders, in a small tree,in front of a large apartmentbuilding. We have had Red &White-breasted Nuthatchesat our feeders throughout thiswinter and Sheila Hulford isreporting them too, both thesespecies are with us yearround, no doubt they moveabout for food. Perhaps thecompetition at Tony’s feederis too keen; causing thenuthatches to move on to adining table with room tospare. I expect the redpolls willsoon run out of catkins, thenhaving had enough of nygerseed they will succumb to thelure of the Boreal, breeding,

ground. Sheila and Tony’sreports sent us looking formigration data: we discoveredthat BHCB migrate mid-Feb–mid-May, with peak migrationfrom mid-Mar to the end ofApr. NS is breeding territoryfor BHCB, in NB they remainyear round. RWBB are in thenorthern half of NS yearround, breeding province-

We thoroughly enjoyed theChronicle Herald’s report byIan Fairclough, Wed., Mar. 4:“Once a plague oncommunities, nuisance birdshave flown the coop”. If youmissed the issue, it is availableon the internet. The reporterinterviewed a Greenwoodresident who enjoyed the“visiting” crows, finding theexperience, “eerie, spooky,and fascinating.

Joe estimated 1000s, in anendless flight which stretchedfrom the Torbrook Rd to#10hwy. There may besufficient wooded area inSouth Farmington to providea roost at a comfortabledistance from residentialproperty. Perhaps the crowshave founded their own Crow,Conservancy! Now all theyneed are infrastructure funds.Crows were sighted nearHalifax carrying nestingmaterial on Feb. 27; again inearly March. B. Eagles and C.Ravens are nesting too.

Fairchild FC-2

Submitted by: Bryan Nelson, Executive Director, CanadianAeronautical Preservation Association

Historic Aircraft that Playeda Significant Role in

Canadian Aviation Heritage

Le Fairchild FC2When the American-made

Fairchild FC-2 was introducedinto Canada in 1927 it made animmediate impact on theaircraft market. Up to this time,the primary aircraft for bushflying had been flying boats,primarily the Curtiss HS-2l,which were large and neededlonger stretches of water onwhich to take off. Further, withmuch of northern Canadafrozen five months of the year,the flying boatscould not operateduring this period.

The FC-2 couldbe equipped withfloats or skis,thereby allowing itto operate in mostareas of Canadathroughout the year.Requiring only oneperson, versus thetwo required for theCurtiss HS-2L, theFC-2 also had a greaterpayload, at 318 kgsand a higher cruising speed of150 km/h. The attraction ofthe FC-2 was obvious to largeand small operators. As otheraircraft began toc o m p e t ewith theF C - 2 ,F a i r c h i l drapidly madeimprovementsby increasingthe enginehorsepower

and wingspan, including theModel 51 which retrofitted a300 horsepower in an FC-2fuselage.

Fairchild Aerial Surveys, acompany formed in Canada byFairchild of the United Statesto gain access to the aerialphotography business,brought the first two FC-2s intoCanada, in July and August1927. The aircraft was used notonly to

transport passengersbetween Canadian citiesbig and small, but alsofor exploring the north.Canadian Airways was

En 1927, l’introduction auCanada du Fairchild FC2 defabrication américaine a eu unimpact immédiat sur le marchéaéronautique. Jusque-là, lesprincipaux avions de brousseavaient été des hydravions àcoque, principalement leCurtiss HS21, qui étaient groset nécessitaient de pluslongues étendues d’eau surlesquelles décoller. De plus,comme la majeure partie duNord du Canada est geléependant cinq mois par année,les hydravions à coque nepouvaient voler pendantcette période.

Le FC2 pouvait être muni deflotteurs ou de patins, ce quilui permettait de voler dans laplupart des régions duCanada pendant toutel’année. Son pilotagen’exigeant qu’une seulepersonne, contrairement auCurtiss HS2L qui en nécessitaitd e u x ,

le FC2 permettait égalementl’emport d’une charge utileplus importante de 318 kgainsi qu’une vitesse decroisière supérieure de150 km/h. L’attrait queconstituait le FC2 était évidentaux yeux des petits et grosexploitants. Comme d’autresavions se sont mis àconcurrencer le FC2, Fairchildl’a vite amélioré enaugmentant la puissance dumoteur et l’envergure,notamment par le modèle 51,lequel constituait unemodification de rattrapage quicomportait un moteur d’unepuissance de 300 hp dans unfuselage de FC2.

Fairchild Aerial Surveys,entreprise mise sur pied auCanada par Fairchild of theUnited States pour accéder aumarché de la photographieaérienne, a amené les deux

premiers FC2 auCanada en juillet etaoût 1927. On a utiliséces deux avions nonseulement pourtransporter despassagers entre depetites et grandes

villes canadiennes, mais aussipour explorer le Nord. LaCanadian Airways a été l’undes plus importantsutilisateurs du FC2, exploitantplus de 12 avions, alors quela Northern Aerial MineralExploration Ltd a utilisé aumoins quatre FC2 pourtransporter des géologues etdes prospecteurs dans desparties septentrionales duCanada.

Le succès de FairchildAviation Ltd à Grand-Mère (Québec) a encouragéla Canadian Vickers deMontréal à demander lesdroits de construction auCanada, que l’entreprise lui avite accordés. La CanadianVickers a construit 11 avions,plus un autre utilisé pour lespièces de rechange. Dans lesannées 30, au moins 40 FC2figuraient au registre d’étatcivil canadien et 21 faisaientpartie de l’ARC. Par samodernité pour l’époque, leFC2 est parvenu à se taillerune place de choix dans lemilieu de l’aviationcanadienne pour lesopérations réservées auxpetits hydravions.

one of the biggest users of theFC-2, operating over 12 aircraft,while Northern Aerial MineralExploration Ltd used at leastfour FC-2s to transportgeologists and prospectors intonorthern parts of Canada.

The success of the FairchildAviation Ltd at Grand Mere,Quebec encouraged CanadianVickers of Montreal to seekCanadian manufacturing rights,

which the companyquickly received.Canadian Vickers built11 aircraft, with anotherused for spare parts. Atleast 40 FC-2s were onthe Canadian civilregister in the 1930s aswell as 21 with theRCAF. The FC-2 hasearned its place inCanadian aviationby introducing moremodern, small float-plane operations

into the Canadian aviationscene.
