Quilchena on the Lake
If anyone is interested in a trip to Quilchena Golf Course outside of Merritt we will be leaving at 8:00 Am Saturday July 26 from King George Airpark. So far a beater Coyote and a beautiful Tecnam will be accompanying you.
I may be interested. The long range weather looks like it could be cloudy on Saturday. Is Quilchena in the CFS? I'd like to know how long it is and what elevation. - Steve
It is true it appears that there is a 40% chance of showers in the afternoon in Merritt but the weather in Vancouver is predicted to be better. So if Merrit does not work then Courtenay or Cortez might be an alternate.

Thanks Ian, I missed it the first time I looked. I wonder if they print it in braille.

Cortez is a cool place to land and I've never flown into Courtenay so whatever happens, I'm in.
