Talk:CFB Kingston
Script error: No such module "Banner shell". What are the references for this statement: "CFB Kingston is the home base for all CH-146 Griffon helicopters which are used to support the Canadian army's airlift requirements."
I don't think that is correct. I was posted to that base and there is no flight line there. I don't see how its possible that all the army's helos operate out of that base.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Warspite (talk • contribs) 10:08, 8 February 2005 (UTC)
- It's also NOT an air base. It used to belong to Training System and its successor organization before it was taken over by Land Force Command. The Wing is merely another lodger unit, same as the Communications School. SigPig 14:49, 23 July 2005 (UTC)
Technically, CFB Kingston is home to 1 Wing, and it's the home station for the entire Griffon fleet, even though there are no operational squadrons posted there. It's just the Headquarters, kind of like how the Royal Canadian Regiment's headquarters remains at Wolseley Barracks in London even though none of the Battalions are actually lodged there. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 142.245.193.4 (talk • contribs) 13:44, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
- My only point is that even if the entirety of Canada's air fleet was based out of Kingston, it is still an army base and controlled/"owned" by LFC (Land Force Central Area, for that matter), and would not become an air force base unless and until it was taken over by AIRCOM. If there is a list of CFBs in Canada, they should be listed under their appropriate element (LFC, AIRCOM, MARCOM, etc); major formations such as an Air Force wing which is a lodger unit on (say) an LFC base should be listed as just that: an air formation on an army base, just as 36 Brigade Group is an Army formation on a Navy base (CFB Halifax). --SigPig 19:27, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
Two quibbles with recent additions by User:Victoriaedwards.
- The Environmental Assessment section is better-placed in the Royal Military College of Canada article
- Is the Awards section, which is sourced from one a single page extracted from a boardroom bulletin, just too much information? I suggests this could be condensed into a single sentence, with an external link to the details in the bulletin. StevenBlack (talk) 15:34, 26 October 2008 (UTC)
- I agree with all your comments and suggestions. I also think the "Awards" section is totally out of context. I wouldn't say that RMC is part of CFB Kingston either. There is a relationship, but I thought they were separate entities.BCtalk to me 16:55, 26 October 2008 (UTC)

Proposed merge of Garrison Golf and Curling Club into CFB Kingston
This club exists within the CFB in Kingston, so this content should be on the same page Nayyn (talk) 22:11, 6 June 2025 (UTC)
