The 'Canada Aviation Museum' (French: '''Musée de l'aviation du Canada''') is the national aviation history museum, located in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, at the Ottawa/Rockcliffe Airport.
The museum's collection contains a wide variety of civilian and military aircraft, representing the history of Canadian aviation from the pioneer era before the First World War up to the present day. Particularly noteworthy is the collection of vintage bushplanes from the 1920s to the 1940s. The military aircraft represent aircraft flown by Canadians in the First World War, Second World War, and the Cold War. The museum's best known exhibit is the surviving components of the Avro Arrow interceptor from the late 1950s.

Also on site are interactive activities on the science of flight, films, demonstrations, a boutique, and guided tours.
A few of the tours take the visitors "behind the scenes" to see conservation and restoration work in progress, and pieces which are in storage.
The National Museum of Science and Technology was established as an autonomous Crown corporation on July 1, 1990. It now operates as the Canada Science and Technology Museum Corporation and is responsible for preserving and protecting Canada's scientific and technical heritage. The Corporation is responsible for three museums.
