www.insideHALTON.com · OAKVILLE BEAVER Thursday, June 14, 2012 · 12 Oakville astronaut to be honoured today Oakville resident and Canadian astronaut Dr. Dave Williams is being inducted into Canada's Aviation Hall of Fame (CAHF). The induction ceremony is scheduled to take place today (Thursday) at the CAHF annual gala and dinner ceremony in Montreal. Inductees to the hall of fame are recognized for playing integral roles in the development of their respective aviation fields and for contributing to Canada's development through these roles. "CAHF always strives to select the best, most deserving individuals for induction into Canada's Aviation Hall of Fame and this year we certainly have a bumper crop," said Tom Appleton, chair of the CAHF. "Dave Williams is a multi-talented individual who has done Canada proud, internationally recognized not only in aerospace circles, but also in medicine and on the frontiers of science." As a pilot, Williams earned both commercial and multiengine licences and he also enjoyed aerobatic flying. He joined the Canadian Space Agency in 1992 and made two flights on the space shuttle in 1998 and 2007. During this time he logged more than 687 hours in space including a record-setting 17 hours and 47 minutes performing spacewalks. Williams also did installation work at the International Space Station. In 2001 Williams became Canada's first dual astronaut and aquanaut by living and working in the world's only underwater laboratory. Between his space flights Williams held the position of director of the Space and Life Sciences Directorate at the Johnson Space Centre in Houston, Texas making him the first non-American to hold a senior management position within NASA. At the same time he held a sixmonth position as the first deputy associate administrator for crew health and safety in the office of space flight at NASA headquarters. Williams, a leading physician who has held senior positions at several Ontario hospitals, became president and CEO of Southlake Regional Health Centre last July. Other Canadians to be inducted into the CAHF include Nils Christensen, founder of Viking Air and Second World War pilot; Air Marshal Harold "Gus" Edwards, a First World War pilot with the Royal Naval Air Service; and Pierre Jeanniot, former president and CEO of Air Canada and former director general of the International Air Transport Association.
