Only one casualty from the snow

I went out to KG to check things today. It looks like everyone's hangers are okay with one exception.

Another Murphy sale?

I was out at Chilliwack today and noticed the JDM-8 in a heap. Looks like it got nailed in the big winds.

Sale at Murphy Aviation.

Got a call from Stephane of Murphy Aviation last Saturday.

Murphy is holding a sale of material surplus to their needs.

Dog Creek Airfield

Geoff asked me to post the coordinates for Dog Creek Airstrip up near 100 Mile House. It's an old military airfield now on private property. Apparently the owner is open to the occasional landing.

There is a group out of ZBB that camp up there on occasion. 6000ft runways.

Google Earth it at 51'37.37N 122'15.19W

Airspace changes

Hang on boys and girls. Our old pal Nav Canada is putting the squeeze on our collective proverbial nut-sack.

Check out the link. This is the draft version of the next VTA. Pretty soon you'll need a transponder code and a clearance for a bowel movement.

This sucks.

Gerry Kinsey

Some of you may have heard that Gerry had a landing incident while flying his Jabiru on Sunday the 16th.

The good news is that Gerry is O.K apart from some damage to his hand. The Jabiru was not so fortunate.

We all wish Gerry a speedy recovery.
