A Canadian Aviation Historical Society Chapter
CAHS Montréal Chapter is a crossroads where aviation veterans and aviation enthusiasts can meet.

Many of our members are involved in researching and writing history, or had a front a front row seat to it. Others have no aviation background but want to know more about aviation, its history, and its impact on Québec and Canada. We especially encourage the newer generation of aviation enthusiasts to join us, but everyone is welcome – visitors and guests included!

Montréal has been one of the main centres of the Canadian aviation industry for years. CAHS Montréal Chapter is ideally located to participate in and record this history through seasonal field visits to these local aerospace companies. Every month we feature a keynote speaker and because we follow a mid-day format (1100-1300 hours), we now include a small lunch (sandwiches, veggies, cookies, coffee, and bottled water).

This sit down lunch format encourages aviation discussions among our members and guests.

*UPDATE*
CAHS MONTRÉAL CHAPTER MEETING CANCELLATIONS

Due to the current Covid-19 situation, the Montréal CAHS chapter executive has elected to cancel their monthly meetings until further notice.

The June BBQ at the MAM has also been postponed, perhaps to be re-scheduled at a later date should circumstances warrant.

While disappointed to have to implement such measures, we must consider the health and welfare of our members to be a priority.

So you won’t forget us, the April and May L’Avion newsletter will continue to be sent out to members for your enjoyment during self-isolation.

Further information updates will be available in the “Word from the President” section of the upcoming L’Avion newsletters.
