Event Schedule and Details
Celebrating 50 years is a BIG deal and the BIG FIVE O promises CAHS members just that – a BIG deal!
 In addition to two-days of historical presentations (see links to view the Program with the list of speakers and their subjects), the BIG FIVE O will include a number of special events and tours. These begin on Thursday evening with a BBQ and tour of the Canada Aviation and Space Museum (CASM), with the bonus of seeing the ongoing restoration of Canadair C-54GM North Star 17515. On both Friday evening and all day Saturday, the CAHS will be special guests at Vintage Wings of Canada's Wings Over Gatineau-Ottawa air show. On Sunday, CAHS members will return to the CASM to be witness to the annual Battle of Britain parade and flypast. The BIG FIVE O wraps-up on Sunday evening with an early-Autumn Harvest Feast and the presentation of CAHS awards.
