HistoryThe base was home to No. 7 Bombing and Gunnery School. The proximity to a lake (Dauphin Lake) was important since the lake could be used for bombing and gunnery practice. Wing Commander W. I. Riddell was the first commanding officer when the school opened in 1941.[1] The station magazine was the "Paulson Post". The school closed 2 Feb 1945 and the Station was decommissioned shortly after.[2] The former airbase was abandoned[3] and has reverted back to agricultural use. AerodromeIn approximately 1942 the aerodrome was listed as RCAF Aerodrome - Paulson, Manitoba at {{coord|51|08|N|99|52|W|region:CA-MB}} with a variation of 13 degrees east and elevation of {{Convert|884|ft|abbr=on}}. Three runways were listed as follows:[4]
RCAF Station Paulson todayCurrently the runways are overgrown but they and the footprints of the buildings are visible in satellite imagery of the area with the foundations of the hangers being most visible due to their lack of overgrowth. There are still a few concrete buildings that are partially standing which are visible from Provincial Trunk Highway 20 which passes near by.
