Unlike the Army where a soldier could spend a career with one regiment, the Airforce just put bodies where they were needed, you know the phrase round pegs in square holes. A pilot wouldn't even spend a career on one type of aircraft (they often would have several types go obsolete during a career).
That said, 12 (Communications) Squadron was based at RCAF Ottawa 1939-1941 before going overseas.
