Finding a place where passion takes flight

Ingenium - Canada's Museums of Science and Innovation

In honour of National Volunteer Week – April 15 to 21 – Ingenium is putting the spotlight on just a few of its invaluable volunteers. In today’s profile, the Channel highlights Terrie Pereira – who talks about her volunteer work with the Canada Aviation and Space Museum in her own words. By Terrie Pereira I started volunteering with the Canada Aviation and Space Museum in the summer of 2013. Around the same time, I was taking up flying lessons again at the Rockliffe Flying Club, after taking a

A unique form of relief coming from the heavens

Rénald Fortier

Ingenium – Canada's Museums of Science and Innovation

Hello there, my reading friend. A word of warning if I may, today’s topic is slightly sensitive in nature. Let me explain. I have a feeling that, just like me, you are not always thrilled at the idea of paying a visit to a dentist. If so, just image yourself as a lumberman, miner or trapper living in some isolated area. A toothache there could be the stuff of nightmares, and this is where our story begins. To be more precise, it actually began in the Russian Empire with a young man born in

There is more to life than airplanes, Part 1

Rénald Fortier

Ingenium – Canada's Museums of Science and Innovation

If truth be told, there is indeed more to life than airplanes. A list of items covered in this non aeronautical category would be very long. Any list worthy of the name should, however, include Belgian style beer, dinosaurs and pterosaurs (Private joke. Hi there, Number One.), as well as air cushion vehicles. In other words, hovercrafts. What is a hovercraft, you ask? The question in itself is painful, my reading friend. It shows how little people remember a go-anywhere machine that promised to

There is more to life than airplanes, Part 2

Rénald Fortier

Ingenium – Canada's Museums of Science and Innovation

You’re back, my reading friend. Has a week passed since our last interaction? Astonishing. Time does indeed fly. Do you remember the topic at hand? Good. Let us continue. Rightly or wrongly, the management of Cushioncraft Limited chose to fully test the CC7 before launching a wide scale effort to sell it. Foreign buyers would be the main target. This approach was based at least in part on feedback from Hovertravel Limited, the first hovercraft transport company in the world and one in which

An exhibition featuring his creations, THE ART OF THE BRICK, has travelled around the globe and was named one of CNN’s Top Ten “Global Must-See Exhibitions.” THE ART OF THE BRICK is coming to the Canada Science and Technology
