Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: High-flyer: Flying and waving with the greatest of ease yesterday is Nick Daniel, who piloted a 1943 Boeing Stearman biplane during the air show at Buttonville Airport. Aerobatic flying demonstrations provided the most thrills, as Daniel performed Cuban 8 formations and other death-defying feats in his plane, used in World War II as a military training aircraft.
