Trenton (Oct 20) -Musical entertainer, Loreena McKennitt, seen here
aboard one of 8 Wing's CC-130 Hercules, takes a short pause while trying
her hand at "spotting" for missing aircraft on a familiarization flight
during 424 Squadron's search and rescue exercise, "Tiger SAREX," near
Montreal.
McKennitt was in the Montreal area to participate in SARSCENE, an
international search & rescue conference. She has been very active in
raising funds for search and rescue organizations since she lost a loved
one in a boating incident in Northern Ontario several years ago.
McKennitt is a distinguished singer and harpist. She maintains a loyal
audience and, in 1998, gained international acclaim for her song,
"The Mummers Dance."
It hit the top of the North American music charts.
