National Air Force Museum of Canada Established in 1984, the NAFMC is dedicated to sharing Canada's air force history. Behold the strength of the workhorse of military flying, the Hercules CC-130.
(321)

Marvel at the fragility of the Burgess Dunne, Canada’s first military aircraft. Over 35 aircraft on-site provide guests with an up close and personal “flying machine” experience, the crowning glory being the fully restored, Second World War, Halifax bomber.The Museum Restoration Shop offers a behind scenes view of the rebuilding process – taking vintage aircraft from mess to masterpiece. However, it’s the stories of Canadian air force personnel that are the real treasures of the Museum. Meet the ingenious POW aircrews who plotted the Great Escape; the gold medal winning, underdogs of the RCAF Flyers hockey team; or the men and women, both civilian and military, that combined to create the massive, hugely successful British Commonwealth Air Training Plan. Located on the north side of 8 Wing/CFB Trenton.

EXHIBITION ON NOW until September 27th

Portraits - Stories of Black Canadian Military Service

Black Canadians have had an enduring presence in Canada’s military history. They have fought and died for freedom abroad, even as they have struggled against discrimination at home.

This panel exhibition celebrates the proud tradition of Black Canadian military service through compelling accounts of service and sacrifice from across the country.
