The RCAF Monument was built in memory for those who served and to serve as a reminder for the location’s history. The monument is situated in ATCO Park, which are the former grounds of the Lincoln Air Force base used by the Royal Canadian Air Force during WWII, and is built on the grounds where the Number 10 Repair Depot was originally located. The monument comprises of a pair of illuminated wings, which were designed by Studio North, and were brought to life by both ATCO Energy and Heavy Industries. The wings are illuminated using the XOOLINE™ HD10 IP67, which was chosen as it provided a beautiful homogeneous appearance without being overpowering for monuments location.
