Commonwealth Air Training Plan Museum

The Commonwealth Air Training Plan Museum is an aviation museum at a Canadian military airport displaying aircraft and equipment from World War II. The collection includes navigation instruments, bombardier tools, and ground crew vehicles from that era.

The facility was part of a British Commonwealth training program during World War II that trained pilots and crews from multiple countries. This program played an essential role in preparing air personnel for the war effort.

The museum honors pilots and crew members through a memorial wall displaying photographs and personal items that preserve their stories. This collection shows how important their service was to the air training effort.

The museum is located at an active airport, so it is most easily reached by car. Visiting conditions change with the seasons, so planning ahead is worthwhile.

The museum preserves several restored aircraft including models like the Avro Anson and Bristol Bolingbroke that were used in the training program. It also displays rare vehicles from the 1940s that document life at the air base.
