This is a great store - they have a lot of stuff in stock from airlines/countries all over the world. It's right by the airport.

The Prop Shop at Buttonville airport is also good, and probably closer to where you are staying if you are near Downsview.

For pilot trinkets, try the Dehavilland Store in the cafeteria across the parking lot from Flight Safety open tuesdays and thursdays at 1100 am.

They have deHavilland hats at the museum on the north end. Talk to the Chilean shuttle driver, and on a slow day, he'll run you up if you're just going to the store.

If you're really on a roll, there's a watch store in the YorkDale Mall with 7000 dollar pilot watches.

alpha-b,

PM me. If the weather is good I go to YYZ on the weekends. I can give you a lift to Aviation World. There is also a way to get there by TTC. There is a bus from Lawrence subway station to the terminals at Pearson. It goes on Airport Rd. / Dixon and should stop at Carlingview, where Aviation world is.
