The First controlled powered flight in Canada took place on February 23,1909.
Graham Bell, the inventor of Telephones formed the Aerial Experiment Association including the below one. The Aerial Experiment Association (AEA) named it as Silver Dart and John Alexander Douglas was the proud pilot of the aircraft. To commemorate its centennial, Canada Post has issued a stamp of Silver Dart in February, 2009. The name of the flight has been printed with a metallic silver colour.

Thanks Brenda, Canada for using this stamp on the cover for our exchange. Nice addition to my Flights of Fancy theme.
