AIRSHOWS are some of the biggest spectator events in the world. Some of the CAF aircraft have exposure to over 10 million people per year by performing in CAF produced shows (nearly 500,000) and then going out on the road (so to speak) for the remainder of the season.

CAF Aircraft fly! This, along with the fact that the CAF Ghost Squadron consists of over 150 airplanes representing 60 types (including planes from several foreign countries), is what makes the CAF different from other aviation museums.

Because CAF aircraft fly, they go to the people and appear annually before as many as 10 million spectators in or near every community and neighborhood in the United States and Canada. CAF aircraft represent living history and as a result help teach invaluable lessons of military aviation.
