The airport opened in June 1941 under the British Commonwealth Air Training Plan as No. 20 Elementary Flying Training School RCAF Station Oshawa. Student flyers used Tiger Moth aircraft and were trained by civilian instructors from the Oshawa, Kingston, and Brant-Norfolk flying clubs. A relief landing field was located at Whitby. The school closed in December 1944 and the airfield was turned over to the Department of Transport. The then-Town of Oshawa took over the facility in 1947.
Oshawa’s roots are tied to the automobile industry, specifically the Canadian division of General Motors Company, known as General Motors Canada. Founded in 1876 as the McLaughlin Carriage Company, General Motors of Canada's headquarters are located in the city. The automotive industry was the inspiration for Oshawa's previous mottos: "The City that Motovates Canada", and "The City in Motion". The lavish home of the carriage company's founder, Parkwood Estate, is a National Historic Site of Canada, and a backdrop favoured by numerous film crews, featured in many movies including Studio 54, Billy Madison, Chicago, and X-Men.
It consists of the southern part of the City of Oshawa south of Taunton Road.

It was created as "Oshawa" riding in 1966 from parts of Ontario riding.

The name of the electoral district was changed in 1967 to "Oshawa—Whitby".
It consists of the southern and eastern parts of the City of Oshawa south and east of a line drawn from west to east along King Street West, north along Oshawa Creek, east along Rossland Road West, north along Simcoe Street North and east along Winchester Road East. The riding includes the communities of Kedron and Taunton and the eastern part of North Oshawa. It has a population of 113,662 and an area of 74km2.
In 1999, provincial ridings were defined to have the same borders as federal ridings.

Solo Training Flight | C152 | Oshawa Executive Airport
A quick video showcasing my second solo flight, almost 3 years ago. The camera ran out of battery during my first solo, so this was the first time I had full footage from one of my flights.
Huge shout out to Durham Flight Centre in Oshawa, Ontario for getting me through my PPL back in the day.
This is the first of many videos to come highlighting my journey in aviation so far. Aviation has allowed me to be lucky enough to experience things that some will never get to experience in their lifetime - and I plan on bringing these events to video.

Flying Into The Sunrise Quebec City CYQB International Airport - Glen's Hangar
Flying Into The Sunrise from Oshawa CYOO To Quebec City CYQB International Airport - Glen's Hangar
Today we fly to Jean Lesage International airport in Quebec City, this is a busy Canadian Class C airport with regular scheduled commercial traffic. Airspace in Canada is structured differently than in the USA - Canadian Class C Airspace / Airports, are the equivalent of USA Class B Airspace / Airports. Canadian Class B airspace is based on altitude; 12,501 ft (3,810 m) up to 17,999 ft, and not on proximity to an airport.
This footage is EDITED, you don't hear all of the radio calls, or see all of the procedures. Editing removes context, and just because you didn't see or hear something... doesn't mean it didn't happen. Relax.
