Canadian Museum of Flight Description
TO RESTORE, PRESERVE, AND SHOWCASE Canada'S RICH AVIATION HERITAGE. The Museum and restoration site are open year round, and house over 25 aircraft both static and flying. The aircraft range from a WWII Handley Page Hampden to a T-33 Silverstar. The Museum possesses the only displayed Handley-Page Hampden in the world. After a 22 year restoration, Museum volunteers saw the 1937 WACO Cabin take to the skies. This restoration was done solely by the Museum’s volunteers whose age range from 16 to 82. Many of the volunteers spent their career in the aviation industry just to retire and put in full-time hours at the Museum. The Museum has six aircraft flying: Tiger Moth, Fleet Finch, SE5a, WACO Cabin, WACO INF, and the Harvard. Restoration started on the Fleet Canuck—when completed, will be the Museum’s seventh flying aircraft. The Museum is a very “hands-on” facility. It has a Millennium Kids Room that allows children to learn by touch and feel how an aircraft flies, and what makes an engine work. A large selection of the aircraft can be touched, and the children can feel that aircraft are made not only from aluminum, but also wood and fabric. Visitors can take a chronological walk around the Museum starting with WWI to present day, and can see how large a part Canada has played in aviation history.
