Surprisingly, a few in attendance had never been to Mary’s. A total of 16 members, guests and spouses attended the dinner, and as one member commented, we had a better turn out than our Annual General Meeting in November. Another member commented that 'that was because there was no election happening.' Thanks Rob P.
The evening started at 6:15 PM with drinks and general conversation and then into a selection of Mary’s fine dinner offerings. Many stories were recited about this past year's fly-in or fly-out destinations and how many hours everyone logged. Quite a few members in attendance are aircraft owners and shared stories about their planes and why they fly the types they do. As the evening progressed we were entertained by “The Cliffes” who played a great selection of 60’s & 70’s classic rock tunes. After conversing for over 2.5 hours, festive greetings were exchanged and we disbanded. Thank you to those who were able to join us in what was a fun evening talking about what we all are passionate about, airplanes and flying.
Please note the January COPA Flight 6 meeting will be Tuesday, January 9th. We normally meet the second Tuesday of the month, but being right after New Year’s, it was decided to move a week following. At press time we are still securing a guest speaker and more details will follow.
As always you neither need to be a member of the Victoria Flying Club nor COPA Flight 6 to attend. All pilots and aircraft owners are encouraged to attend COPA Flight 6 meetings as we are the voice of General Aviation in Canada.
