The Avro Anson was the most numerous twin-engined advanced trainer ever used by the RCAF. Designed in the U.K for use as a coastal patrol aircraft by the RCAF, the Anson earned its place in history as a trainer, used to train tens of thousands of people who flew in bombers during and after the Second World War. The Anson was produced in large numbers in Canada during the conflict by several aircraft manufacturing firms. The artist who painted the original artwork was Robert J Banks. In 1943, Robert joined the RCNVR, then the RCAF, serving until discharged as a Pilot Officer, Bomb Aimer in December 1944. Rejoining the RCAF Primary Reserve in 1954, he served until retiring in 1966 as a Flight Lieutenant. After the war, Bob attended the Vancouver School of Art. A 62 year career in commercial art followed, where he did work for such firms as CP Air, Air Canada, BC Rail and BC Transit. L'aéronef Avro Anson était l'entraîneur avancé bimoteur le plus couramment utilisé par l'ARC. Conçue aux Royaume-Unis, l'Avro Anson était l'aéronef de choix pour la patrouille côtière par l'ARC, l'Anson est reconnu comme entraineur typique pour entrainer des milliers de personnes qui ont volé des bombardiers lors de la seconde guerre mondiale. L'Anson a été produit en grande quantité au Canada par différents manufacturiers. L'artiste qui a peinturé la version originale est Robert J Banks. En 1943, Robert s'est joint à la réserve volontaire de la Marine royale canadienne et finalement l'ARC. Il a servi dans l'Aviation royale canadienne jusqu'à temps qu'il a été libéré en tant que bombardier et "Pilot Officer" en décembre 1944. Banks s'est rejoint à la réserve de l'ARC en 1954 jusqu'à sa retraite en 1966 lorsqu'il occupait le poste de "Flight Lieutenant". Après la guerre, Banks a étudié à l'école des arts de Vancouver. Il aura une carrière de 62 ans en art commerciale et il aura des projets pour plusieurs grandes compagnies, tel que CP Air, Air Canada, BC Rail et BC Transit.
