Night FlightSleepover Program—Ages 5 to 18
How about a night of total fun at the Canada Aviation Museum! All your students need to bring is a sleeping bag, pillow, toothbrush, and a taste for extraordinary fun. We supply the adventure! They explore the Museum collection by flashlight, find out about aerodynamics through interactive demonstrations, practise on the controls of a Cessna 150, watch a film, sleep “under” the wings of an airplane, and more. The next morning your group will leave the Museum with a fantastic memory of a wonderful Night Flight! For out-of-town groups, Night Flight offers a fun, educational, and affordable accommodation solution!
Night Flight is a program for groups of kids ages 5 to 18 and is available throughout the week. The program schedule and content can be tailored to suit your needs, including curriculum objectives and scouting and guiding badges.
