Because Sydney was geographically off the beaten track and as a consequence received only few visits from HQ staff officers, jokingly, it was stated that station Sydney was running its own Air Force known as the Royal Cape Breton Air Force (RCBAF) founded in 1956.

OBS

Institution fondée à la station de Sydney en 1956. Il semble que la station de Sydney était tellement isolée sur le plan géographique, qu'elle recevait rarement la visite des officiers d'état-major du QG. Pour s'amuser, les militaires de la station fondèrent leur propre force aérienne.
