History of Quartier Bois-Franc A. the Cartierville Airport Was Located in St-Laurent and Started in 1911 B/C of WW1 and Was Decommissioned in 1988 History of Quartier Bois-Franc a. The Cartierville airport was located in St-Laurent and started in 1911 b/c of WW1 and was decommissioned in 1988. b. ‘‘In March 1990, Bombardier Real Estate Services was mandated to transform the 200- hectare runway used by Canadair in Cartierville into an innovative real estate development. Following a series of comparative studies of similar projects in the U.S. and Europe, the concept for the Bois-Franc residential project was born, inspired by a new urbanism approach.’’ (Bois-Franc in Saint-Laurent, 2020) c. It was then turn into the Bois-Franc neighborhood d. It was closed because the Dorval airport made it more difficult and hazardous. e.

    CANADA AVIATION AND SPACE MUSEUM AIRCRAFT CANADAIR CL-2 / C-54GM NORTH STAR RCAF SERIAL 17515 Introduction In June 1946, Canadair Limited, located at the Cartierville Airport facilities near Montreal, rolled out its first production aircraft, a large, gleaming contemporary four-engined transport destined for the domestic and foreign commercial as well as Canadian military markets. With recommendations by Trans-Canada Air Lines (TCA), Canadair had taken the time-proven Douglas DC-4/C-54 Skymaster design, and combined it with legendary Rolls-Royce Merlin engines to become their first of a series of stalwart aircraft configurations to emerge from the Canadair production lines. The amalgamated aircraft project was christened North Star by the first president of Canadair Limited, Benjamin W. Franklin, after considering other suggested names including Polaris. The small Canadian production run had large domestic and international customers including principally Canada’s national airline, TCA, along with Canadian Pacific Airlines (CPA), British Overseas Airways Corporation (BOAC), and the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF). As a youngster in the mid to late 1960s, I would relish the time off from school during the summers as my family would take the seemingly too long a drive from our home, in St. Martin, Quebec, for our annual visit to the “airplane museum” in Ottawa, Ontario. Once there, we would wander around the aircraft displayed outside and tour through the three Second World War-era wooden hangars that formerly housed the aircraft and personnel of RCAF Station Rockcliffe. At this time, these old buildings at Rockcliffe Airport had been designated as the principal home of the famed National Aeronautical Collection of Canada.

    CANADA AVIATION MUSEUM AIRCRAFT CANADAIR CL-600 / 601 / 604 CHALLENGER SERIAL 1003, REGISTRATION C-GCGT Introduction Setting the bar high is always a risky venture in the sinusoidal up and down world of aerospace, and Canadair Limited in Montreal literally risked it all in the late 1970s with its challenging, advanced design and manufacture of the world’s first wide-bodied business jet – the aptly named Canadair Challenger. Canadair, a virtual fledgling in the world of aerospace achievements compared to the larger and more famous contemporaries south of the border, had to try harder to make itself recognized as a force to be reckoned with in aircraft design and manufacturing. Therefore, the young research and development staff of engineers, prevalent in the early 1950s through to the 1980s, was constantly tasked to come up with novel proposals, studies and product ideas to fill a competitive niche in a current or a future market. Hoping that one of these schemes would prove to be the harbinger of fame and respect in the aviation manufacturing community, numerous designs, from jets, trainers, maritime reconnaissance aircraft, and drones to military and civilian passenger transports of all shapes and sizes, flowed onto drafting tables at a prodigious rate. Unfortunately, the company’s nationality, periodic government ownership and location above the 49th parallel kept it from competing fairly for the huge United States Air Force military aviation contracts, something that was perceived to be sorely needed to survive in the burgeoning post-war aviation market. Canadair Limited in Montreal, one of the largest companies in the Canadian aircraft industry, was acquired from the Canadian Government by the Electric Boat Company of Groton, Connecticut, in January 1947.

  • 1940 Updated 21/04/10
    CANADA'S AIR WAR 1940 updated 21/04/10 January 1940 An order for 150 Short Stirling bombers is placed with Canadian Associated Aircraft Ltd. (Molson & Taylor). These aircraft were intended to be Stirling II bombers, using Wright Cyclone engines, but when these engines were installed and test flown in England the aircraft was found to be under-powered, so this version was never built (M.J.F. Bowyer). 242 (Canadian) Sqn. begins re-equipping with Hurricane I fighters (FE). The RCAF Flying Instructors School was transferred from Borden to Trenton, Ontario (E.A. Johnson et al). In Alberta, Buffalo National Park at Wainwright, Alberta, used to preserve Bison in Canada, was closed and the land given to the military for exercises. This was made formal in 1947 and the land transferred permanently (wikipedia). Plans are begun to open a training school for Polish aircrew in France (Falkowski). Sino-Japanese War, In China fighting between National Army and Communist forces reaches a peak before subsiding (but never ending) due to increased attacks by the Japanese Army (Oxford). In Germany the T.4 Program of secret and illegal euthanization of mental patients and those deemed "inferior" by the state continues. A co-ordinated effort was made to keep the deaths from becoming public, including fake letters to families and to private insurance companies reporting that the victims were living happy lives (Oxford). Even children with slight learning disabilities were included in the numbers killed (A. Beevor). See August, 1941.
