Canada's Aviation Heritage
Publisher Larry Milberry's
Video and Media Archive
Since it's inception the folks at NOAHC have been conducting video interviews with notable folks
involved in aviation throughout North Western Ontario. Some of these folks have since, sadly passed on,
but their stories have been captured on digital media, and archived at the Centre.
We've also purchased and had donated a collection of Aviation related DVD's.
The following is a list of these DVD's, which can be viewed at the Centre, or available for short term loan.
Sample clips of the video interviews can be viewed here: Video Interview Samples
Centre hours of operation and contact numbers can be found here: Centre Hours of Operation
Hope to see you at the Centre!
