Information Sessions at COPA 5 Boundary Bay Flying Club

From Jim Niessen, President, COPA 5 Boundary Bay Flying Club

 

Hello All

It’s that time of year again where flying sometimes has to take a back seat to the weather. I don’t know about you but I am not getting as much flying activity as I would like. For that reason COPA flight 5 Boundary Bay Flying club has setup four Safety Seminars.

2013 COPA-for-Kids - Boundary Bay - Volunteers Needed

Hello Folks,  

This message is going out to all who volunteered at the September 2012 COPA flight 5 COPA-for-Kids flights at Boundary Bay airport.

Mar 6, 2013 - Tour of Fire Station And US Customs Procedures

Bryan Webster has arranged for us to tour the Fire Station at Victoria International at 7pm, and Jonathan will provide an overview of US Customs procedures back at the flying club at 8pm.

NOTE: We will be meeting at the Fire Station at 7pm for the tour.  Map shown below.

Feb 6, 2013 - Meeting - John Howroyd

Change in plans:  Originally Keith MacDoanld was going to give us a presentation on the history of CYYJ but unfortunately he took a very bad fall in the parking lot right after our last meeting and is just out of hospital.   Hopefully we will have an update for you on Keith by Wednesday.  

John Howroyd who was owner of the Howroyd/Butler airstrip (which is now a gravel pit in Central Saanich), and who has built many aircraft and is an all-round interesting guy will fill in for Keith Feb 6th.  It should be a fascinating presentation!
