Canadian Historical Aircraft Association

Canadian Historical Aircraft Association

The Canadian Historical Aircraft Association (also known as the CH2A) is a non-profit organization based in Windsor, Ontario which is committed to preserving aircraft which have significance to the history of Canadian aviation. They have a 1941 Boeing Stearman and two de Havilland Chipmunks available for flybys and sightseeing flights.

The Canadian Historical Aviation Association is in charge of the maintenance and restoration of a Lancaster bomber which was purchased by the City of Windsor in 1964. The Lancaster bomber was on display in Jackson Park for many years, and will be soon transported to the Windsor Airport in order to protect it from the elements.

A Canadair Silver Star, more commonly known as a T-33, is on static display. The CH2A is also restoring a de Havilland Mosquito bomber recovered from a crash site in the Canadian arctic.

The current President of the Canadian Historical Aircraft Association is Mike Beale.
