	HA3702 is McDonnell CF-101B Voodoo 101045 of No.416 Sqn., Canadian Armed Forces. Very low production run of 1,500 models, of which only a few were imported to the UK. Boxlid has a light crease to the bottom right corner. 416 Fighter Squadron formed in November 1941 and became the “Lynx” All-Weather Fighter Squadron in February 1957. In January 1962 416 AWFS moved to Bagotville, Quebec and in November 1962 they moved to CFB Chatham, New Brunswick for 22 years. Former USAF Voodoo 57-382 entered Canadian service as CF-101B c/n 560 serial 101045 in May 1971 until September 1984. At the end of 1984 the Voodoos were replaced by CF-18 Hornets and the 416 became a TFS and were the world's last front-line unit flying Voodoos. The McDonnell F-101 Voodoo (nicknamed One-oh-Wonder") first flew in September 1954 with the first production F-101A making its first operational flight in May 1957. In September 1957 the F-101C became operational followed by the F-101B in January 1959. When production ended McDonnell had built 785 Voodoos, 480 of them were the two-seat all-weather interceptor F-101Bs. The RF-101 reconnaissance version was the world’s first supersonic photo-recon aircraft. The only major foreign operator of the Voodoo was the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) that acquired 56 CF-101B and 10 CF-101F.
