Museum Temporarily Closed

The world is once again undergoing upheaval, threatened this time by a tiny virus. Over the past few months we have witnessed the COVID-19 virus move from distant news to a part of our community.  

As a proactive measure, to ensure the health and safety of the public and our volunteers, the museum will be temporarily shutting the doors.

The ground schools are postponed and we will advise you of the new schedule as soon as possible.

Hopefully the museum will resume operations before the Rust Remover on April 11, 2020, so that date will be kept on the calendar.

We will continue to monitor updates from our local health authority and keep you advised with future updates.

If you have any questions, please email Office@SaskAviation.ca or phone:

Rust Remover 2020

The Saskatchewan Aviation Museum and Learning Centre is hosting a RUST REMOVER clinic to help pilots brush of the rust from their flying and knowledge.

Please join us Saturday, APRIL 11, 2020. At the same time stroll through our museum on a self-guided or guided tour of vintage aircraft, artifacts and memorabilia. The clinic will be held in the museum's main hangar amongst vintage aircraft.

Fly-Ins Welcome!! Parking is available on large area on tarmac by museum.

The whole idea of the RUST REMOVER is to help General AVIATION PILOTS to comply with CARS currency requirements. Speakers will focus on highly relevant and current airman-ship and practices to be employed with every flight.

Registration:  08:00-08:45
Lunch break: 11:45-12:30    (Coffee and Lunch is included)
Wrap-up:       16:00
