		De Havilland Canada was formed in 1928 to build Moth aircraft for the training of Canadian airmen and continued after the war to build its own designs suited to the harsh Canadian operating environment.
		De Havilland (Canada) was eventually incorporated into the Bombardier group of companies and the Dash Eight remains in production with a particular emphasis being placed on its quiet operation in comparison to other aircraft of a similar size.
		De Havilland's first foreign subsidiary was set up in Australia in March 1927.

		De Havilland continued to produce high performance aircraft including the high speed twin piston engine DH.88 Comet mailplane, one of which became famous in its red livery as the winner of the MacRobertson Air Race from England to Australia.
		The high performance designs and wooden construction methods culminated in perhaps the most famous de Havilland aircraft - the Mosquito, constructed primarily of wood because of the shortage of aluminium during the war.
		De Havillands was bought by Hawker-Siddeley, before incorporation into British Aerospace.

		Certains avions d'entraînement sont des versions biplaces d'avions de combat et peuvent être rapidement reconvertis en avions de reconnaissance ou de combat s'il est nécessaire en cas d'urgence, ce qui économiquement peut être avantageux pour de plus petites armées de l'air.
		Comme les coûts de développement des avions ont augmenté de manière conséquente à cause de la sophistication des systèmes et de l'amélioration de la sécurité, peu d'avions ont tendance à être conçus spécialement pour l'entraînement.
		Actuellement, pour des raisons de sécurité et de rentabilité, la plupart des entraînements se déroulent dans des simulateurs au sol.

	CANADIAN WARPLANE HERITAGE
		The Chipmunk was the first primary trainer manufactured by De Havilland Canada, of Downsview (North York) Ontario, as a successor to the Tiger Moth.
		The Chipmunk's long service was due, in part, to its fully aerobatic capabilities and superb flying characteristics, similar to the Spitfire's, which made it a delight to fly.
		The CWH Chipmunk was one of the early trainers built as a DHC1B-2-S5 and was designated a Chipmunk II.

		Although the type was retired from flying training in 1993, Chipmunks continue to serve with the RAF's Air Experience Flights, with which many thousands of Air Training Corps and Combined Cadet Force cadets have had their first taste of flight.
		Over seven-hundred Chipmunks were built for the RAF, some of which also served with the Army and the Royal Navy.

	Trainer (aircraft) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		As the costs of developing aircraft have risen in real terms, partly due to the increased sophistication of systems and safety features, it has become much less likely that aircraft will be designed specifically for the training role.
		Classic training types were the De Havilland Tiger Moth, the North American Texan (Harvard in many countries) and the De Havilland Chipmunk.
		Some jet trainers, such as the Aermacchi MB-326, Folland Gnat, Fouga Magister and British Aerospace Hawk, have become famous through their use by national formation aerobatic teams.

		The Real Thing: The Chipmunk was the first aeroplane to be completely designed by the De Havilland company of Canada to replace the Tiger Moth, and first flew from Downsville, Toronto in May 1946.
		It was a very succesful design and after DHC had built 218 for the Canadian armed forces, De Havilland in the UK went on to build a further 1,014 whilst OGMA in Portugal built another 60.
		The canopy looked too high when viewed from the side and a number of people at the club meeting made the same comment, so I cut it down further than was indicated on the moulding, and this improved the appearance considerably.
