Nice to find familiar names.

Hope to see you land at DairyAir soon.

Greasy side down. Shiny side up.
Ya can't go wrong.

Nav Canada Notice

Changes to airspace classification has been announced for the Pitt Meadows and Langley airports.
A control Zone classification change from Class D to Class C [transponder mode C required] will enable more effective and efficient provision of air traffic control [ATC] services at the Pitt Meadows and Langley airports.
These changes will take effect 14 February 2008 at 09:01 Coordinated Universal time. The appropriate aeronautical publications will be amended.

Note that the size of the control has not changed so that flight over the 200 street and highway no 1 interchange [Collosis Theater] will keep you out of both control zones.

Cheers Fred

New member

I just got the invitation to join, so I'm dipping my toes in the water! Let's see what happens...
I'm the editor of the monthly newsletter for the Thompson Valley Sport Aircraft Club, or TVSAC at http://www.ocis.net/tvsac/newsletter.html
Flying from Kamloops since 1998, I am now doing it in my own design, a twin-boom pusher I called the Proton, powered by a 447Rotax. I am still tweaking it! Unfortunately, the present fuel capacity would not allow me to fly to the Fraser Valley; but I would love to meet some of the fellows next time I drive by on the way to visit my sons in the Vancouver area.

Awesome idea

This will be a great way for us all to rebuild the camaraderie that we seem to be missing in our small community, I am looking forward to contributing what I can
