NATO Training
Six years later the school was reopened as No. 3 Flying Training School for the purpose of training NATO[1][2]pilots using single-engine aircraft such as the Harvard. During the 1950s there were approximately 1,100 R.C.A.F. personnel stationed in Claresholm, including Canadian and international pilot trainees who learned to fly here. The base was officially closed again in 1958. A Harvard aircraft, much like the ones used during the training, can be found on display at Centennial Park.
