  • Summerside: Revisiting the Base Closures
    Summerside: Revisiting the Base Closures Donald J. Savoie Canadian Institute for Research on Regional Development University of Moncton Moncton, NB ElA 3E9 Dramatic events, throughout the world in recent years, have led the Govem­ ment of Canada to rethink its military strategy and to consider closing down sorne military baSes and' realigning others. World events, however, are not the only forces at play. Canada's difficult fiscal situation is also pushing the Canadian govemment to downsize and restructure its forces and to reduce defence spending. There is strong pressure on the federal govemment to repair its balance sheet by cutting spending, with many observers suggesting that there is limited room left to increase or add new taxes. The cost to taxpayers of rnaintaining military bases is high at $4.5 billion in 1992-93 as reported by the Department of National Defense (DND) officials in November, 1993. Yet, closing a base is not an easy matter, even if it makes sense from a strictly military perspective. Communities housing a military base invariably fight any attempt to close "their" base. Indeed, a "Save Our Base" committee is sure to spring up at the first hint that such a proposal is in the wind. The community, however, is not likely to point to military requirements to make the case to keep its base open. Rather, it will predict invariably eCOll­ omic disaster for itself if the base closes. Il will also argue for its fair share of military spending and draw notice to other communities, provinces and regions already receiving more than their share.

  • On the CH-113 Labrador
    Canada Aviation Museum Exhibit Boeing-Vertol CH-113A Labrador Canadian Armed Forces Serial No. 11301 Introduction Beginning in 1963, the Canadian air force and army began receiving new turbine powered helicopters. The helicopters selected were two Canadianized versions of Boeing’s CH-46A Sea Knight, a proven workhorses of the United States Marine Corps and US Navy. The air force received six utility models beginning in 1963 for their search and rescue (SAR) role and which were designated the CH-113 Labrador. Twelve aircraft designated the CH-113A Voyageur were delivered to the army beginning in 1964 to meet their tactical airlift role. The Canada Aviation Museum's Boeing-Vertol, CH-113A Labrador (originally a CH-113) Serial Number 11301 helicopter had a long and distinguished career in meeting the needs of the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) and the Canadian people. It was purchased in 1963 and was the first turbine powered helicopter acquired by the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) serving primarily in the SAR role. Retired in 2004, the museum’s aircraft was also the last of its type in service in Canada. It had thousands of missions to its credit and 17 625 hours on the airframe. During its service life, No.11301 was involved in many life-saving search and rescue missions, some of which are described here, as well as a brief outline of its development and service history up to its transfer to the Museum 27 July 2004. It should be noted that the Labrador and Voyageur shared a common two digit serial number prefix within the serial range assigned to each aircraft.

  • Canada Aviation and Space Museum Aircraft
    CANADA AVIATION AND SPACE MUSEUM AIRCRAFT McDONNELL DOUGLAS CF-18B HORNET RCAF HORNET SERIAL CF188901 INTRODUCTION The McDonnell Douglas (now Boeing) CF-18 Hornet (official military designation CF-188) is a Canadian Forces / Royal Canadian Air Force (CF / RCAF) jet fighter aircraft based on the American-made F/A-18 Hornet fighter. In 1980, the CF-18 was selected as the winner of Canada’s New Fighter Aircraft (NFA) competition, and a production order was awarded. The Canadian Forces began receiving the CF-18 in 1982. CF-18s have since routinely supported North American Air Defence (NORAD) Command air sovereignty patrols in North American and North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) missions in Europe. The fleet has also participated in combat operations during the Gulf War in 1991, the Kosovo Air Campaign in the late 1990s, and also as part of the Canadian contribution to the international Libyan no-fly zone in 2011. By the time the CF-18 fleet is fully retired sometime in the 2020 timeframe, the type will have seen 40+ years of front-line operations. The use of the CF-18 Hornet in CF / RCAF service has been exclusively as a land-based fighter, which is slightly unusual in that the original F/A-18 Hornet design was intended to be a carrier- based naval fighter. Canada was the first nation to select the aircraft type for more conventional operations but other nations quickly followed suit. This modified use of a naval fighter design has however caused some in- Two CF-18s from 433 Tactical Fighter Squadron high over Bagotville, Quebec - (CF Photo 2007-03-19-07HQ) service problems for the fleet while in Canadian use and eventually necessitated an extensive structural repair program.
