July 3, 2025: The 40th anniversary of the Canadian Harvard Aircraft Association (CHAA) this weekend is a testament that the volunteers who promote and care for the aircraft are as enduring as the Second World War trainers.
Planned for Saturday, CHAA spokesperson Terry Scott said, “We’ll have all sorts of displays for the public to see. It’s a great opportunity for the public to go out, learn about our associations, and if they are keen, to go for a flight in one of our warbirds they can do that.”
The association has eight Harvards – the iconic yellow trainer – and one Yale, which is another trainer from that era. Six of the aircraft are airworthy, and five are currently flying. Works is underway on restoring the others.
