The Canadian Aviation time line console is divided into five separate categories. Each category represents a key period in aviation history.

This digital collection was produced under contract to the SchoolNet Digital Collections program, Industry Canada.
The digitization project was co-ordinated by the National Aviation Museum (NAM) and supervised by the Youth Services Bureau of Ottawa-Carleton (East-End unit). This project also involved the creation of an Archival Photo Database which contains an additional 8,000 photographs and will be available on the National Aviation Museum's website shortly. | Français | Project Outline | Acknowledgements | Archival Photo Database | email | Please send suggestions or comments to:
