The first visit of an electric powered aircraft to Toronto took place on July 11 when Beta Technologies CX300, N916LF, stopped overnight at Billy Bishop Toronto City Centre Airport (CYTZ) on its ferry flight to Oshkosh, WI for display at EAA AirVenture. This is the passenger version of the CX300 with seating for two pilots and four passengers.

Two different Beta Technologies CX300 electric conventional takeoff and landing (eCTOL) visited Billy Bishop City Centre Airport this summer. The latest visitor was N401NZ which is the fourth CX300 to fly. It only had 15 hrs total time when it departed Burlington, VT on Aug. 16 for Toronto, recharging at Rome and Rochester airports along the way. The Toronto visit included several flights with Canadian customers and partners as passengers. Later this year, N401NZ will be shipped to New Zealand for flight familiarization training with Air New Zealand, which has ordered CX300s for postal routes.

Ornge is the air ambulance service in the Province of Ontario. It operates a fleet of eight Pilatus Next Generation PC-12 turboprops and 12 Leonardo AW-139 helicopters. C-GYNO was photographed at Billy Bishop Toronto City Centre Airport which is usually home for two AW139s. The other AW139 bases a located in Ottawa, Sudbury, London, Moosenee, Thunder Bay and Kenora. The Ontario Ministry of Health's air ambulance program launched in the late 1970s with a single IFR Bell 212 operating as "Bandage One" from Buttonville Airport, north of Toronto. A second 212 followed, then a BK117 and two S-76As.

Otter 3669 was in the Air Force 1951 to late 1981. Sold to Newcal Aviation (N2631U) in 1983 and stored at Decatur, TX it was sold to Prince Ablert, SK based Dawn Air (C-FASF) in 1988. That company folded several months later with the aircraft going to Air Sask Aviation (1988 - 1990). Last with Points North Air Services, on May 1, 1999 the aircraft attempted a take off from a slush covered frozen lake. Failing to get airborne, it clipped the shoreline and slid 300 feet before coming to a stop and catching fire. The pilot and five passengers escaped unhurt, but the aircraft burned.

Agusta brought this new A109C, N1WD, to Toronto in August 1990 to show it to prospective customers. Demo flights were conducted from Toronto Island Airport (CYTZ) where it was photographed flying past the CN Tower. The helicopter was purchased by Leffler Transportation Company. Crashed in eastern Pennsylvania on at 19:05 local time on Jan. 18, 1995 on a flight from Williamsport, PA (IPT) to a company heliport in Richland, PA (PS96) killing the pilot and two employees. Flew IFR to Harrisburg, then VFR when it entered low clouds. Probable cause: spatial disorientation, darkness and poor weather.
