Canadian Museum of Flight

I had a blast here, as I've recently gotten into aviation, the CF-104D Starfighter is the first aircraft I've sat in, thanks to this place, I have had lots of great memories, and tons of fun!

If you can I reccomend a Sunday when Robert is in. He made a 2 hour tour fly by and taught us more then I could have known to even ask. The pictures he carries with him and the videos to demonstrate the planes in flight and internal workings were fascinating! Such a fun and engaging place to spend a few hours.

This is a live airport. You can see the museum and visit the gift shop as well. Summer time is the best as there are outside flights to observe if you’re interested.

What a great little museum, and a great way to spend an afternoon! Robert gave our family an energetic tour filled with lots of cool historical facts about all the different planes and equipment on display. Thank you!

It was a great experience. My kids like it so much. The tour guide Robert was so informative and helpful. I recommend this place to anyone who has young children

This is a little gem for anyone who loves, or has an interest in aviation! It's not a big exhibition but it has a lot of history!

What a gem! And Robert gave an informative yet dynamic site tour. The museum has many airworthy displays and a unique collection of WWII aircraft. Love it.

We drove from Portland to attend the Battle of Britain commemorative day on 16 September, 2023. What a gem of a museum! A plethora of exhibits with attendant placards thoroughly explaining a particular display. Another point that impressed us was the number of displays featuring women participating in all phases of aviation. This is very encouraging, and we understand the museum is involved in programs to encourage more women to consider careers in aviation. Fabulous! (Having the only Handley Page Hampden in their collection is also huge.) We will return.

Our tour guide Robert was awesome, he was the best tour guide I've had in my life at any museum, this museum has so much history to it and if you're visiting from the United States you'll be amazed what there is to offer and the stories behind it.

I would highly recommend this to your site seeing must do list.
Robert is the man when knowing these aircraft. The whole staff are the pillar to this museum.
Thank you to all of you for keeping the spirit alive.

Robert provides a great tour on site! You will learn a lot of fun facts on aviation, get to touch AND sit in cool fighter planes!

Very kind staff, you guys are awesome. Great place to take kids.

You can easily spend two hours here easily with kids. Glad they had some information about Canada's military history and was very engaging for someone who has no knowledge of Canada's aviation history.

Hidden gem

It's good collection of planes and information since world war II and Canadian contribution.

Love it.
Great planes. Lots to learn. Special thanks to the volunteers looking after it.

Thanks Robert for your great explanation about planes and history and for answering all our spontaneous questions, The museum was fun and interactive. Good plan for families.

Super welcoming and my son - who is a major aviation enthusiasm - loved it. A hidden gem with a wonderfully kind staff and volunteer opportunities.

Lovely little museum. I felt like a kid in a candy shop looking at all the planes I've only ever seen in books.

My wife must've been driven mad by me dragging her around but it was a great time.

The sweetest people in the world volunteer there to keep this place going. I wish they could get a bit of funding to keep this little slice of history going.
