The Waterloo Wellington Flight Centre (WWFC) is committed to promoting aviation within our community. As part of that commitment we have developed several tours to introduce various groups within the community to the wonder and thrill of flying!
Whether you are looking for an educational platform for your students or are a general interest group with a love of flying, there is something for everyone. Check out our Junior Aviator Tour or our Science of Flight Tour. WWFC also has tours to answer your questions about how you can “learn to fly”.
