    CANADA AVIATION AND SPACE MUSEUM AIRCRAFT CANADAIR CL-41A / CT-114 TUTORS RCAF SERIAL NUMBER 114108, SNOWBIRD 10 STATIC DISPLAY RCAF SERIAL NUMBER 114155, SNOWBIRD 5 MAIN ENTRANCE RCAF SERIAL NUMBER 114055, COCKPIT TEACHING AID Introduction In the late 1940s and 1950s, it was found that comparable advances in military training aircraft were not matching the advances made in tactical aircraft. In order to maintain the quality of training, each successive advance in operational performance necessitated the addition of a new aircraft type to the training fleet. An excessive amount of training course time was being spent transitioning from one aircraft type to another, thereby lengthening the time of the course. Syllabus duplication coupled with the burden of maintenance, spares, additional personnel, and overhaul facilities for two or more aircraft types proved both unwieldy and costly. It was thought that one type of aircraft was required to simplify the pilot training programme with the performance and flexibility to meet all of the training requirements, one that was simple enough for the ab initio stage, and sophisticated enough for the advanced stage. Benefits would include shortening the syllabus duration, reduce the training costs, lessen the number of aircraft required, and cutback on the number of flight instructors and skilled personnel required. Encouraged by unofficial contacts with Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) personnel, preliminary studies of tandem and side-by-side seating all through basic jet trainer designs, to introduce student pilots to elementary jet flying up to Wings standard, were formally started at Canadair in 1955 and submitted to RCAF headquarters.
