Durham Artists Social Network

A social network for artists, and their friends, in the Durham Region in Ontario

For those of you who are interested in Canadian aviation heritage or have family or friends with this interest I recommend you visit this musem located on the former Downsview Airport property in Toronto. The focus of this relatively new museum is to display aircraft with a Canadian connection. Amongst many aircraft is the only full scale metal replica of the Avro Arrow,in existence. This is the product of a multi year project of volunteers and supporters and which was completed and unvailed last fall. I am a volunteer member on the restoration of a WWII vintage Canadian built Avro Lancaster Bomber and have a special interest in this one as my father piloted one during that conflict.
The museum can respond to group visits and special functions. The following link will give you more information and if you click on the "visit Us" link you can get better directions. Bob http://torontoaerospacemuseum.com/home.html Delete Comment

Thank you for your kind words Robert. As well, thank you for the info on the air museum at Downsview. I had no idea of it's existance. I will visit there in the near future.
