点评:My husband is British and a huge WWII and airplane buff. I found this by chance and I drove him out there (we stayed in Calgary) and it was a huge hit. The museum has so much information about the amazing contribution of Canadians to the war effort and the incredible price they paid for it in human lives. We were moved many times by the stories and bravery these people had to share. The planes themselves were fantastic. They even had opportunities to sit in a cockpit (wow - so small - so many buttons and switches!) and two simulators to "fly" a plane. There are certain days they actually start the engines of some of the planes but you would need to contact them to find out more specifics on that. Worth the outing outside of the busy city for sure! Afterwords we took a meandering route through the surrounding farms and fields back to Calgary and that was spectacular as well with all the canola fields in bloom.
翻译:我的丈夫是英国人,还是二战及飞机爱好者。我偶然发现了这个地方,便开车带他前去参观(我们当时住在卡尔加里),他非常喜欢。博物馆里有大量资料,讲述了加拿大人为战争所做的卓越贡献,以及他们为此付出的巨大生命代价。这些人的故事与勇气多次深深打动了我们。那些飞机本身也堪称精彩绝伦。他们甚至有机会坐进飞机驾驶舱(哇——空间好小啊——有这么多按钮和开关!),还有两台模拟器可以用来“驾驶”飞机。在某些特定的日子里,他们还会启动一些飞机的引擎,不过想要了解更详细的信息,就需要联系他们了。从繁忙的市区出发来这里一趟绝对是值得的!之后,我们沿着周边的农场和田野蜿蜒前行,回到了卡尔加里。一路上盛开的油菜花田也美得令人惊叹。
