While viewing the over twenty-five aircraft in the museum's collection your students will hear the names Mynarski, Gray and Hornell. These are Canada's three Victoria Cross recipients of the air. All gave their lives for "King and Country" and were awarded the Commonwealth's highest award for bravery. At the museum, there are aircraft dedicated to each of these Canadians who faced terrible odds for the sake of others. Each aircraft in the collection played an important role in history.
