Recently acquired by the KF Centre for Excellence museum and it is in immaculate condition. This is a British built Chipmunk and it has had its original canopy replaced with the Canadian version. It is painted to look like an RCAF DHC-1 but it was never part of that air force. Keeping it company is a DHC-2 Turbo Beaver C-FMPC

C/N 002, this CV-580 was the main fixture out front the KF Center in Kelowna until the Conair one showed up. Nice to see this early example so well preserved. Some great history here, and well worth the visit!

Soon this extremely rare Tempest II will be airworthy. Its been a very long process but will be well worth it seeing the only flying example of this type in the world. The engine is an R2800 which I was told came out of a Canadair CL-215.

An extremely rare aircraft which is part of the brand new KF Aerospace Museum in Kelowna. This aircraft was undergoing a restoration in New Zealand before it was obtained by the museum and brought to Kelowna where it has been undergoing a complete rebuild to airworthy status. Its nearing completion and is a great addition to the collection
