Prince Albert was home to both #6 EFTS and #6 AOS schools during the second world war. The M & C Aviation company was largley responsible for the success of both schools, as it was given the contract to service and overhaul a large percentage of the aircraft used. #6 EFTS began in 1940 with Tiger Moths and ran until 1944, when these were replaced by Cornells until the end of the war. #6 AOS operated during the mid-war years, using the Avro Anson.
