Sunday Sorties: Demonstration Flights at our Home Field
Weather permitting, we will perform demonstration flights at our home field on Sun. June 11th, Sun. July 9th and Sun. August 13th. We will fly two sorties with aircraft being “wheels up” at 1:00 pm and 3:00 pm. Come a bit early to see our crews prepare the aircraft and watch the aircraft taxi out prior to flight. Ground and aircrews are available to answer your questions.
The Great War Flying Museum is open from 11:00 am until 4:00 pm on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays from the Victoria Day weekend in May until the weekend following the Labour Day weekend in September. Our hangar also has crews on-site on Tuesdays and Thursdays performing maintenance and repairs year round, and we welcome visitors from 2:00 – 4:00 pm in the afternoon on those days.
Admission is by donation.
