Excellent museum
North Atlantic Aviation Museum的点评
点评：The North Atlantic Aviation Museum looks at the history of aviation in Gander. The reason Gander exists is because of aviation. In the days before jet planes, airplanes flying across the Atlantic needed a place to refuel. Gander is inland and has better weather than the coastal towns. The airport opened in the 1930s and was the launching point for getting troops and supplies to Europe during World War II. The town grew up around the airport and was relocated farther away from the flight paths in the 1950s. From above, the streets look like the head of a gander.
There are many exhibits to explore. The Link Trainer was the world's first true flight simulator. It was developed in the 1920s by Edwin Link. I found the sign in the men's room amusing. Many celebrities landed at Gander. They had a 1942 Douglas DC-3 cockpit on display, with a simulated landing. The 1942 deHavilland Tiger Moth on display was used as a training aircraft by the Royal Canadian Air Force during World War II. After the war, it was rechristened "Box of Tricks" and performed during air shows.
There was a section of the museum devoted to the events of September 11, 2001. You can see thank you letters to the people of Gander and the town mascot, Commander Gander. The steel beam from the World Trade Center on display was given to Gander in 2011 to thank them for their selfless role after the terrorist attacks.

翻译：北大西洋航空博物馆展示了甘德的航空历史。甘德之所以存在，是因为航空。在喷气式飞机出现之前，飞越大西洋的飞机需要一个加油的地方。甘德位于内陆，天气比沿海城镇好。机场于 20 世纪 30 年代开放，是二战期间向欧洲运送部队和物资的出发点。该镇围绕机场发展起来，并于 20 世纪 50 年代搬迁到远离航线的地方。从上面看，街道看起来像一只公雁的头。
有很多展品可供探索。Link Trainer 是世界上第一个真正的飞行模拟器。它是由 Edwin Link 在 20 世纪 20 年代开发的。我发现男厕所里的标志很有趣。许多名人降落在甘德。他们展示了 1942 年的道格拉斯 DC-3 驾驶舱，并进行了模拟着陆。展出的 1942 年德哈维兰虎蛾飞机在二战期间被加拿大皇家空军用作训练机。战后，它被重新命名为“魔术盒”，并在航空展上表演。
博物馆有一个专门用于纪念 2001 年 9 月 11 日事件的部分。您可以看到写给甘德人民和该镇吉祥物甘德指挥官的感谢信。展出的世贸中心钢梁是 2011 年赠送给甘德的，以感谢他们在恐怖袭击后所做的无私贡献。
