This CH-113A Labrador served with the Canadian Army and with No. 450 Sqn before being reassigned to the SAR role in the mid-1970s after Canada acquired eight CH-147 Chinooks. When the Labrador fleet retired in July 2004, this was one of two aircraft that spent about six years at Canadian Forces School of Aerospace Technology and Engineering as training aids. In about 2010, the aircraft joined the collection of the Comox Air Force Museum, CFB Comox, Lazo, BC on Vancouver Island, a former CH-113 Labrador SAR base. The aircraft wears a CH-113 retirement decal on the side of its nose.

HeliClub is the brainchild of HelicoStore, which was founded in 1992, and established the club for Quebec helicopter owner-pilots. The 1,006 metre (3,300 foot) turf airport was established in the early 1920s by F.H. "Tom" Wheeler to welcome fly-in visitors to the family's Gray Rocks hotel, the first resort in the Laurentian mountains and the first resort in Canada to operate an aircraft. It was also the birthplace of Wheeler Airlines.

RCAF Picton was built as part of the British Commonwealth Air Training Plan (BCATP) on a high plateau overlooking the town of Picton. It was home for the RAF's No. 31 Bombing & Gunnery School when it officially opened in April 1941. The school operated Anson, Battle, Bolingbroke and Lysander aircraft and offered six-week courses in bombing, navigation and air gunnery until it was disbanded in Nov. 1944. The wartime film "Captain of the Clouds" was partially shot here. It's one of the few airports in Canada with most of its wartime buildings intact and also home for an Air Cadet gliding school.

Canada's Regional 1 Airlines of Calgary rebranded as Aspire Airlines in the early summer of 2021 when it was only flying Dash 8-100, C-GWRI. This aircraft was delivered new to Germany in April 1988 (as D-BERT) and flew with Contact Air, DLT and Lufthansa CityLine. In Apr 1994 it joined the fleet of Era Alaska (as N882EA), and was later imported to Canada in Dec 2013 by Avmax (a leasing company) in Calgary, and flown by its Regional 1 subsidiary. Regional 1 used to fly lots of crew change flights to northern Alberta (until oil prices collapsed) and charters from YVR to salmon fishing resorts.

The Glenn H. Curtiss Museum finally flew their reproduction of the 1914 Curtiss flying boat "America" from the surface of Lake Keuka at the museum's 2008 seaplane fly in Hammondsport, NY. In 1907, telephone inventor Alexander Graham Bell formed the Aerial Experiment Association (AEA) to develop aircraft and he recruited motorcycle and engine builder Glenn Curtiss to help. Design work began at Bell's estate in Nova Scotia and later moved to Curtiss' workshops in Hammondsport where four AEA aircraft were built and flown in 1908. In 1909, the AEA disbanded and Curtiss established his own company.
