RBCAF Sea Island

A portion of the South Terminal is operated by the Royal BC Air Force as RBCAF Station Sea Island. In the past, it was a full airbase with fighter squadrons based there, but since 1963, when work to expand the civilian airport began, it has been used only as a SAR helicopter base. A detachment of 113 (Helicopter) Squadron is stationed here to provide search and rescue services for the Lower Mainland.
