The Canadair CL28 (CP107) was a Canadian adaptation of the Bristol Britannia with four Wright R-3350 engines for long range anti-submarine patrol missions. A total of 33 were built and they flew for two decades with 5 squadrons (Nos. 404, 405, 407, 415, 449) from bases in Greenwood, NS, Summerside, PEI and Comox, BC. Argus 20717 (later 10717, but now painted as 107717) was accepted in June 1958 and spent most of its career based at Greenwood until retired in March 1980. Five Argus are displayed at museums (Ottawa, Trenton, Summerside, Greenwood & Comox) and a sixth stored by WCAM at Gimli, MB.

Many airlines operating short haul scheduled and charter passenger services from Vancouver to communities on Vancouver Island and the mainland of British Columbia have operated from the "South Terminal" of Vancouver International Airport since the new "Jet Age" terminal with jet bridges opened on the north side of Runway 08/26 on September 10, 1968. The building was originally opened as the "West Terminal" on July 1, 1957 to increase terminal capacity before Canadian Pacific and Air Canada introduced larger turboprops (Vanguard, Britannia) and DC-8s on routes serving YVR.

This 737-700 was imported by Westjet in Nov. 2007 as C-GWJE. It was sold to Bradley Air Service (First Air) as C-FHNN in Nov. 2021. In 2019, First Air and Canadian North (both owned by the Inuit of northern Canada) agreed to merge under the Canadian North name.

This private Cessna 208 Caravan on Wipaire 8750 amphibious floats was photographed Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport on June 30th when forest fire smoke once again drifted south to envelope Toronto. The Caravan was built in 2007 and first registered as C-FMSK to Jetport Inc., an aircraft management company, in March 2007 and based in Hamilton, ON (YHM). In May 2010, it was registered to Aviation Starlink Inc. and moved to Montreal (YUL). Winterland Aviation Holdings bought air aircraft in January 2013 and immediately re-registered C-GFIA.

A decade after the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) took delivery of the last of 18 Lockheed CP-140 Aurora maritime patrol aircraft in 1982, the CAF took delivery of three CP-140A Arcturus aircraft in 1992 (without sophisticated ASW systems) primarily for pilot training and surface patrol missions . Aircraft 140119 was completed by IMP Group at Halifax Airport and delivered to the CAF in December 1992. It was retired to ground instruction use sometime prior to 2005 and transferred to the museum in 2016. The two other CP-140As were retired to AMARG Davis-Monthan AFB, AZ in 2010.

The Museum restored this Vertol 44 as No 9592 serving with No. 103 Rescue Unit at Greenwood in the 1960s. Built in March 1960, it later flew at RCAF Chatham until retired in November 1971. Sold to Nahanni Helicopters in 1973 as CF-BSG, it was later abandoned in Fort Simpson, NWT and salvaged by Garth Walker of Comox, BC c.1980 who planned to use it for logging. The museum obtained the rear cabin of 9592 from collector Byron Reynolds in Alberta and later acquired US Army H-21 53-4365 for its front cabin and other parts since a snowplow accidentally crushed the front cabin of 9592 in BC.

This Lockheed Neptune served with the US Navy from 1960 to 1980 as 147969. After retirement from Fleet Composite Squadron Eight (VC-8) based at NAS Roosevelt Roads, Puerto Rico the aircraft was flown to CFB Greenwood, Nova Scotia on Aug. 27, 1980 to join the Greenwood Military Aviation Museum. Painted as the first of 25 RCAF Neptunes delivered in 1955 to replace the Avro Lancaster. California Airframe Parts Co. bought the surviving RCAF Neptunes for parts in 1970, but three were sold to Flying Firemen in Victoria, BC to be air tankers. These aircraft were never operated in Canada and sold in the US.

A total of 1832 Avro Anson Mk II were built in Canada by five companies including 340 built by Canadian Car & Foundry in Amherst, NS (including No. 7135). Delivered to the RCAF in August 1942, it was assigned to No. 4 Training Command in November 1942, and allocated to No. 15 Service Flying Training School at Claresholm, Alberta in April 1943. Postwar, it was stored at RCAF Vulcan, AB and sold to a farmer and recovered by aviation enthusiasts many decades later. The restoration team spent 5.5 years and a total of 16,528 volunteer man-hours restoring this aircraft which was completed in 2009.
