Rescue


Two of the airplanes from our flying group piloted by Jock Bray and Greg Stump landed on a sandbar on the Fraser this past weekend to assist an unfortunate pilot who had ran off the sandbar and flipped his Cesna 150 into the river. The pilot was cold and wet but uninjured. As the pilots cell phone was waterlogged, Jock called the RCMP, SAR and the pilots wife. Other aircraft soon landed to help and the Ultralights returned to king George. Good job guys.

TEXADA FLY IN 2012

Hi there group. I have just heard from Bob Timms regarding Texada fly in 2012. The date has been set for Sunday July 15 and the organisers have kindly offered to help with rides or accomodation searches. I know this is early days but it is just nice to think about the Summer.
.
See you all at the Big Ridge tomorrow.

Hello, Mr Weatherman?


The bold explorer in Sechelt quizing the weatherman to find out where the low cloud sprang from? From there to Chilliwack where there was a good turnout from our flying group. Six airplanes in for lunch on a cold but sunny day.

Christmas lunch

Hi Guys,

Because of the success of our Christmas get together lunch last year It has been suggested that we do the same this year and I have been asked to organise the event so here goes.

Same place as last year, the Big Ridge Pub on 152nd, close to king George at noon on the 18th of December. I have booked for twenty to thirty people and would like some idea of how many are coming. All are welcome, spouses, friends even Arnold.

Please let me know.

James.
