Hey there, time traveller!

Brandon’s Commonwealth Air Training Plan Museum officially reopened its doors to the public Sunday following an eight-month period where staff were forced to shut the hangar down to conduct some structural repairs.
To help welcome the visitors back during Canadian Armed Force Day, the museum invited members of Royal Canadian Air Force and Canadian Forces Base Shilo to drop by and showcase their modern military vehicles alongside the hangar’s Second World War-era aircrafts.
The museum represents one of the few remaining examples of the flying schools built across Canada to train Commonwealth pilots serving in the war.
Once the museum reopens for good, it will operate seven days a week from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m.
Executive director Stephen Hayter told the Sun last week that the museum is always looking for more volunteers.
