Airforce Heritage Museum and Air Park
Walk through the Airforce Heritage Museum and Air Park. The grassy park is uncontrolled and open, allowing you to view the historic aircraft in dramatic poses at your own pace. The museum inside the Canadian Forces buildings requires an appointment, so focus on the outdoor exhibits for a free, open-air experience.
09:45
Saint James Memorial Sports Park
Head to Saint James Memorial Sports Park. It is the closest green space to the air park, only an 18-minute walk to the east. Use this time to stretch your legs in a quiet, local park setting away from the airport perimeter.
10:45
Airforce Heritage Museum and Air Park
Return to the Airforce Heritage Museum and Air Park for a second look. The morning light on the aircraft and the expansive grassy areas is best enjoyed when the area is still relatively quiet. Since the air park is free and uncontrolled, you can linger as long as you like.
Local tip
The museum inside the Canadian Forces buildings is by appointment only. If you want to see the interior exhibits, you must arrange a visit in advance. Otherwise, the outdoor air park is always open.
Check before you go
- The museum requires an appointment. The air park itself is free and uncontrolled.
