Congrats Tom!

It's great to see the museum gaining the exhibits it needs to really stand out; having the third largest collection in Canada is pretty impressive.

You have really done a lot for that museum and we can see now that it's really starting to pay off!

Once again, congrats on the newest addition to the Alberta Aviation Museum.
