Check out the winning photo from our first-ever photo contest!

April 5, 2023

Congratulations to Nik Rave for his grand prize-winning photo of our CF-104 Starfighter titled ‘Mission Accomplished’.

Nik is the winner of an annual pass to our museum and a $100.00 gift card to our Landing Zone Boutique gift shop.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for our first-ever photography night at the museum for National Aviation Day this past February. It was a great evening and we were blown away by the photos submitted to our contest.

There was a close race between a few photos, so we’ve also acknowledged a few Honourable Mentions.

We look forward to doing it all again next year! Browse the gallery below to see all the contest submissions.
