Canada Aviation and Space Museum

[2][3] In December 2008, the museum announced that approval had been granted for a C$7M expansion to begin in May 2009 and to be completed by the fall of 2010.

[6] Ingenium is an autonomous Crown corporation which works to preserve and protect Canada's scientific and technical heritage.

The museum's collection contains a wide variety of civilian and military aircraft, representing the history of Canadian aviation from the pioneer era before the First World War up to the present day.

[10] Also on site are interactive activities on the science of flight, films, demonstrations, a boutique, and guided tours.

A few of the tours take the visitors "behind the scenes" to see conservation and restoration work in progress, and components which are in storage.
