In Remembrance Presentation - the British Commonwealth Air Training Plan

In this presentation at the Western Development Museum - Moose Jaw, hear an overview of how during the Second World War, recruits from Canada, Britain, Australia, New Zealand and elsewhere trained at air bases across the country, including twenty-one flying training units in Saskatchewan. Learn how the wide-open prairie skies made an ideal location for these new pilots to train with the British Commonwealth Air Training Plan (BCATP) and about some of the aircraft that were flown.

There will also be a second presentation on this date (Saturday, October 19) at 2:00 pm about Saskatchewan's Wartime Contributions. Museum admission includes access to both programs with your receipt.
