Canadian Aviation Electronics Inc : CAE, once known as Canadian Aviation Electronics Ltd., was founded in 1947 by Mr. Ken Patrick, an ex-Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) officer. According the CAE website, his goal was to "....create something Canadian and take advantage of a war-trained team that was extremely innovative and very technology-intensive."

The company was located in a vacant aircraft hangar at the Saint-Hubert Airport. CAE started to repair and overhaul ground communication equipment and install Antenna Farms in the Arctic for the RCAF. Within two years, CAE was firmly established in the Canadian radio industry.

In 1952, the company entered the simulator business with a contract from the RCAF to develop a CF 100 flight simulator. Following this, from the 1950s onwards, CAE manufactured, modified or serviced everything from flight simulators (for commercial and military) to televisions, radios, hi-fidelity sets, radar equipment and SARAH, a search and rescue and homing system for the RCAF's nationwide rescue network. In 1976, one highlight was that CAE was awarded its first space-related contract from SPAR Aerospace Limited to develop the SIMFAC simulator. This simulator was used to evaluate the Remote Manipulator System (RMS - also known as the Canadarm) and to train astronauts on its use. This led to a later participation as a team member of the Canadian Space Station Program.

By the 1980s and 1990s, CAE had expanded into multiple subsidiary companies, as follows:

CAE GMBH (Germany)
Northwest Industries (Edmonton)
CAE Fiberglass (Guelph)
CAE Aircraft (Winnipeg)
CAE Metals (Welland)
Canadian Bronze Company (Winnipeg)
USP Industries (Lennoxville)
CAE Machinery (Vancouver)
Webster Manufacturing Ltd (London, Ontario)
Accuracast Die Casting (Wallaceburg)
CAE Magnesium Products Division (St. Catharines)
CAE Morse Division (Montreal)
CAE Lubricators Division (Montreal)
Cleveland-CAE Metal Abrasive Division (Welland)

Currently, CAE now exports 90 per cent of its products to over 50 countries, has 500 employees, 160 sites and training locations in over 35 countries. Each year, they train more than 120,000 civil and defense crewmembers and thousands of healthcare professionals worldwide.

This is a small corporate archive. The materials relate to the establishment, operation, and expansion of CAE's business.
