    3. Diane, My father served in Alberta under the Commonwealth Air Training Plan. ( have just searched and found this http://www.airmuseum.ca/ - a museum dedicated to the CATP) As a consequence, I have searched for Canadian Air-force & associated websites documents etc. Try this one http://www.canadianwings.com/Stations/stationsList.php?location=Canada The National Library of Canada may be able to help. http://www.collectionscanada.gc.ca/index-e.html During my searches, I came across lots of small websites which covered small areas with associated airfields, aircraft museums, etc. In Calgary, there is a superb aircraft museum quite close to Calgary International Airport. They hold quite a lot of records, and may be able to help. If you ever visit Calgary, do visit the museum. Canada is a huge country, and I think your searches will be spread out and vast and as rewarding as a visit to Canada :-) Happy hunting, Richard Brown > ------------------------------ > Message: 9 > Date: Thu, 17 May 2012 23:29:13 +0100 > From: Diane <dpkms20042000@yahoo.co.uk> > > Hi there, sorry that it is late for people in England to see this but > other people might be able to help me with this! > > My uncle was in the UK air force in the 2nd world war and he went to > Canada for part of his training.  I am having problems finding out where > he trained in Ontario Canada. > > Would anybody know on this list where  to look for where he trained > please?  The air force museum in Canada wasn't any use as they didn't > know whom to ask!! > > Hoping that some of you could help me in this search. > > Thanks very much for reading this. > > Diane > > ************************************* Richard Brown Bromley, Kent U.K. Member of: - E.
