Comox Airshow. August 17 2013. Looks like a must do fly-in !!

Camping in Quesnel

If you haven't done it, you should think about doing it. Quesnel has created the greatest camping spot for fly-in visits, with everything you need and more. The camp ground has a covered cooking area, multiple BBQ's, tables, chairs, water, bucket,wash brush, and out-house. The Flying Club club house has flush toilets, showers, kitchen, seating area and Pilot room, with all you need to file a Flight Plan. The Quesnel Terminal (during business hours)has washrooms, phones, pop and snack machines. There's also a coin machine, if you happen to leave all your changed home, like we did. The Quesnel Skyfest Air Show is coming up on August 3-4. Weather permitting, we'll be there. Anyone else interested?

Cortes Island fly-in

We had a good turnout for our fly-in to Cortes on Saturday There were pilots from several clubs such as Langley, Qualicum, Delta and of course King George.

Some of you will know that Jim and Diane Hanson are retiring and have sold their airport and resort to a corporation who intend to turn it into an executive retreat. We are not sure where that leaves us so we decided to get in what may be our final trip to Cortes as we know it.

As always Jim and Diane were gracious  hosts and laid on a great lunch. We all wish them the very best in their retirement and hope to keep in touch.
