A Canadian Aviation Historical Society Chapter
The Canadian Aviation Historical Society is dedicated to the preservation of civil and military aviation history through the work of regional and municipal chapters. 

The Medicine Hat Aviation History Society, as the local CAHS Medicine Hat Chapter, follows this guideline by preserving the history of local and regional aviation, combining both civil and military experiences as related by those involved. The establishment of a British Commonwealth Air Training Plan organization, No. 34 Service Flying Training School, here in Medicine Hat ensured that the city will always be closely associated with a strong general aviation background.

​The establishment of several air service companies in the district also ensured that former and current members have contributed to the community. It is also through the work of air traffic controllers, aircraft maintenance staff, and emergency response organizations who utilize aerial support, that the deeply rooted history of aviation will never be far from our minds.
