North Atlantic Aviation Museum

The North Atlantic Aviation Museum is an aviation museum located in the town of Gander, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. The association to establish the museum was formed in 1985 and the museum opened to the public in 1996.

Aviation has played a crucial role in the development of Gander. It was a major refueling stop for transatlantic flights starting during World War II (RAF Ferry Command and later RAF Transport Command) and continuing until the increased range of commercial jetliners eliminated the need for refueling. Gander earned the nickname "Cross-roads of the world" at the height of its civil aviation role. Gander was used for test flights of the Concorde starting in 1974.
