File:F.3 aircraft just landed at Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, after using North Bay as a checkpoint on its cross-country flight.jpg

Summary
It was a segment of the record made by the Canadian Government of the first crossing of Canada by airplane. The country was (and still is) mostly wilderness. The flight was meant, in part, to prove that the relatively new technology of aircraft was a viable means to explore the country, patrol its sovereignty, and open up accessibility to communities near and far flung throughout the dominion.
