Aero Linx: Canadian Aviation Historical Society Welcome to the online home of the Canadian Aviation Historical Society, the world's premier organization dedicated to preserving Canada's flying heritage. The CAHS is undergoing significant changes: there are many new faces in the executive, at the helm of the Journal, and in the day-to-day management of the Society. These dynamic times have unfortunately resulted in a delay in Journal publication, but editor Terry Higgins has put together several exciting volumes that have reached member’s online and post office mailboxes with more on the way in the near future.

"I congratulate all partners on this fantastic achievement. It is great to see product innovation and continued development with hydrogen fuel cells for UAVs – these represent a viable alternative to Lithium Polymer batteries which are not only difficult and costly to transport internationally but largely inefficient in comparison to hydrogen. A 60-minute-plus flight time with a large payload creates many opportunities, not only with our existing broadcast clients but in other commercial markets and sectors. We are eager to explore these opportunities in 2019."
