Promoting the safe enjoyment of aviation for pilots, aircraft builders and enthusiasts.
The author recounts a summer vacation in Calgary, initially planned for Terrace, BC, but ultimately spent at a lake cabin. Highlights include attending a fly-in breakfast, dealing with a malfunctioning airplane starter, and various local flights. Despite challenging weather, the week culminated in 10.2 flying hours and preparations for an upcoming Oshkosh event.
As a pilot, I'm excited to return to Oshkosh for the 2011 event after attending multiple times since 1992. Our group plans a similar expedition to 2008's, departing July 22. Despite the complexities of arrival procedures, they are manageable. I invite fellow club members to join for this enjoyable trip, requiring over a week’s vacation.
