Geocache Description:

Small public airport in Dunville. EZFlyer and I flew in one day hoping to find at least on cache in Dunville, by foot. Nope, all caches were quite a long hike by foot so we didn't do any but found a great spot to place a cache.
The cache is residing in a small park just outside of the airport boundries, easy access off Port Maitland Road.
No need to enter the Airport property.

Container is small, bring your own writing tool.

The museum opened on July 5, 2004 with an aim to preserve the history of the No.6 Service Flying Training School. The airport in Dunnville, of 28 constructed across Canada, is one of the few remaining bases from the British Commonwealth Air Training Plan (BCATP). Its preservation ensures that future generations can learn how the BCATP contributed towards the freedom we all enjoy today.

The museum is dedicated to the more than 2,500 men and women who served at the school from 1940-1944. Uniforms, pictures, memorabilia and artifacts of this era are displayed in the museum. There are also a North American Yale, Harvard, DeHavilland Tiger Moth and Fleet Finch on display in the hangar.
