Beaver RX 28 test (show of ) at King George

This video clip of a Beaver RX 28 from Spectrum aircraft inc. was made back in 1988/89 at King George the single seat basic ultralight was apparently flown by a pilot from spectrum aircraft of Surrey to show of the trust he has in this aircraft, you can see his performance really good because he is flying really low(I guess it does not hurt as much if he would hit the field from this altitude instead of high :) he is wearing his helmet. do not try this at home or any where else ever !!!! :Ron fly safe

Lowrance 2000c

I have just received this message from the Rans Flyers group. It may be of interest to the owners of Lowrance GPS units.



This is just a heads up. Lowrance confirmed to me that they are no longer going to market aviation related GPS units.I noticed less and less GPS products on their website so I wrote them and asked when we might be seeing some new aviation models. Here is their response:"Thank you for contacting us.We will no longer be making any aviation units, we are leaving that market. Please feel free to contact us if we may be of further assistance.Lowrance Customer Service Division of Navico Inc."The Bendix/King units are looking better all the time...Cheers,Dennis

SR-71

This is a most amazing Remote Controlled [RC] model airplane - click link below to see it fly. Not only did they build its jet engines, but included retractable landing gear, and built it into a fully scaled model of the SR-71 that is good enough to fly. This SR-71 model was built by some German RC enthusiasts, and this is one nifty toy - and sounds REAL! plus it is probably more expensive than our ultralights

Piper Superrrr Cub

Happy New Year to all From Ron and Deb.

Piper superrrr Cub

Have a look at the video link below of a performance by a stunt pilot who is, in real life a Delta Airlines pilot. His act at Air Shows is to pretend that he is a drunken spectator who rushes from the stands and jumps in a Piper Cub and takes off without any understanding of how to fly a plane.

The Piper Cub is actually specifically built to withstand enormous stress and has a very powerful engine.

This apparently is the most dangerous of Air Show acts because of the low altitude at which the pilot performs. This pilot possesses unbelievable skill, which becomes obvious in the attached video.

Happy holiday's to all

HAPPY HOLIDAY'S AND CLEAR SKY'S PLUS SAFE LANDINGS (and take offs, keep your eye's on where you go)

from : Ron and Deb.

Christmas get-together

Hi there fellow pilots. Please be advised that there is a Holiday get-together and pot luck at the Airfield on Saturday the 12th of December. Everyone welcome. I hope to see you all there around 14 hundred hours. Please spread the word.

James.

Skookumchuck

Which is also known as St. Agnes Well Hot Springs is closed to the flying public.

Here is the quote from Stephen Jimmie, IDC Economic Development Officer In-SHUCK-ch Nation: "The airstrip is closed for liability reasons. You will need to drive into the site to visit the hot spring. Thanks"

Sad but true, the end of a beautiful era in the history of King George. If anyone knows the In-SHUCK-ch Nation all you have to do is invite them for a fam flight and see if at least one of them would like to take flying lessons...

The strip was a bit sad looking last summer when Jock and I flew over. Looked like it was being used as a road.
