Visitors will have the opportunity to step aboard and explore several of our historic aircraft, including the:

Guests will also be able to visit our new Vampire Pavilion, home to the museum's newest addition to the Heritage Air Park.
Knowledgeable volunteer guides will be stationed throughout the day to answer questions, share the history of each aircraft, and provide fascinating insights into their operational service. Visitors can also browse our souvenir tent, featuring museum merchandise, and enjoy a variety of additional static displays throughout the grounds.
Admission is by donation, with all proceeds supporting the Comox Air Force Museum's mission to preserve, interpret, and share Canada's military aviation heritage for future generations.
