Does anyone know the name of this stadium? I really don't know. Time for a little trivia. I suppose I could research it, but I'm to lazy.
I was just flying aimlessly around and almost flew into it.

Thanks Aussie. Now I know. That is one
looking stadium. Looks kinda like a giant cobra snake towering over it.

You're welcome, Bob!
My family and I were in Montreal the summer after the Olympics. Believe me, it looks a lot better than the FS version.
If memory serves me, the Montreal Expos played baseball in that stadium before moving to Washington, DC and becoming the Washington Nationals.
And yes, I have that paint for the Beech 18. And why not, I'm half Canadian

LOL - I'm reminded of a comment by Canadian comedian Lorne Elliot when talking about Toronto:
"They have the CN tower there...it's an architectural marvel, but Dear Lord it's ugly. Looks like an unfortunate accident between a Tim Horton's donut and a Juno award...At least here in Montreal when we build something as equally hideous like the Olympic Stadium, we make sure the construction's so damn good and shoddy it won't last out the century!"
