Although wonderful to highlight AC's participation, there have been contributions form others such as the RCAF/ARC, Air Canada Pilots Association (ACPA), Boeing, The Government of Canada, The Royal Canadian Geographical Society, Canadian Geographic, CPAC: The Cable Public Affairs Channel and especially the Canadian Museum of Flight: As per the full information; The VIMY FLIGHT Team of pilots and builders, based at the museum along with cadets from the 746 Lightening Hawk squadron are building two replica Sopwith Pups biplanes that will join the four Nieuports in Vimy, France. The contributions of these other groups are significant. The pilots are risking their lives in these Nieuports and Sopwiths.
