The Saga of the Norseman

The Mark V Norseman was first constructed in 1934 by RBC (Bob) Noordyun in Montreal. He consulted with northern pilots and operators on northern bush operations and aircraft requirements.

This aircraft had a long reliable career starting with the Manitoba government in September 1946. Almost 1000 of this hardy aircraft were constructed and used around the world.
