Secure your spot and order your ticket online — see you at the Saskatchewan Aviation Museum!
The Saskatchewan Aviation Museum offers an up close and personal experience with aircraft that have shaped Saskatchewan’s and Canada’s history.
From the early “bush planes” to the” Yellow Wing” trainers of World War II, we strive to remember our aviation pioneers. Volunteers restore and conserve aircraft, document artifacts and photographs, keeping once-commonplace skills and manufacturing techniques from vanishing.
There’s something for everyone, together with guided museum tours and flight simulators, the museum is designed to engage and inspire the public of all ages.
Come visit, browse the museum or book a guided tour for yourself, a group, or a class of students. Discover a wealth of history in our aircraft hangar, displays and flight simulators.
