Feature Story

2024 marks the centenary of the Royal Canadian Air Force. To honour the RCAF’s longstanding service to Canadians, the City of Ottawa Archives has created a display and accompanying booklet.

Two members of the 445 Squadron pose with their CF-100 “Canuck” at Uplands after setting a Toronto-Ottawa speed record of 23 minutes, 1956 City of Ottawa Archives / CA040573

Beginning in October, we invite members of the public to visit the display beside the Barbara Ann Scott Gallery in City Hall and to pick up a copy of Capital Skies: Honouring the RCAF in Ottawa. In this booklet, the City of Ottawa Archives presents the RCAF photographs, documents, and artifacts from its collection, tracing the division’s story from the 1920s to the present day.

The booklet will also be available at the Central and Rideau branches of the Archives, while supplies last, and online on the virtual exhibits section of the Archives page on ottawa.ca.

For more information on City programs and services, visit ottawa.ca, call 3-1-1 (TTY: 613-580-2401) or 613-580-2400 to contact the City using Canada Video Relay Service. You can also connect with us through Facebook, X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram.
