A single engine, work-horse bush plane with a history that dates back to the 1930's, the Norseman was designed by Robert B C Noorduyn and produced between 1935 and 1959.
Unlike many other bush planes, the Norseman started out in life being fitted with floats rather than fixed landing gear, with the end result that it can be fitted with three types of landing gear - namely: floats, wheels and skis.
Of the 904 Norseman built, it is understood that only 18 are still in operation around the world with around 4 stationed at Red Lake in Northern Ontario, Canada.
The Norseman is a bush plane suitable for carrying cargo and passengers, and has...
... been attributed to the success and development of the town of Red Lake where it is still in use today. The town of Red Lake has hosted the annual Norseman festival in July since the 1970's

As the Norseman bush plane capital of the world, it is not surprising to see one put on a pedestal in the small town of Red Lake in Northern Ontario, Canada.
