A Canadian Aviation Historical Society Chapter

Formed in 1964, the CAHS Ottawa Chapter has more than 250 members today, some of whom live outside the region.

CAHS Ottawa Chapter meetings are held on the last Thursday of the month from September through May (except December) in the Mauril Bélanger Theatre
of the Canada Aviation and Space Museum, Rockcliffe Airport, and feature guest speakers, films, slide shows, and book signings. Speakers present both first-person accounts and researched papers covering all historical periods and aspects of aviation. Recent talks have dealt with the Canadian use of specific military and civil aircraft, squadron and company histories, and the noteworthy aviation experiences of people from the Ottawa-area. Visitors are always welcome.

We also have a Research and Projects Group that meets monthly. These are very informal gatherings, where members show their current and historic aircraft slides and videos or outline some of their research interests. Again meetings are open to anyone and new faces are always welcome.
