January 1, 2019 Newsletter January 2019 NEWSLETTER “A national organization dedicated to promoting the viability of Regional and Community Airports across Canada” www.rcacc.ca JJul RCAC MEMBER AIRPORT PROFILE: History of Fort St. John Airport (CYXJ) – Part 2 Jj Under the National Airports Policy, announced by Transport Canada in 1994, the North Peace Regional Airport became eligible for ownership by local interests. In January of 1997 the North Peace Airport Society signed documents transferring ownership from Transport Canada to the Society. As of March 18, 1997, the airport is operated by North Peace Airport Services Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of Vancouver Airport Services. The North Peace Airport Society introduced an Airport Improvement Fee September 01, 1998 to raise funds for the renovation and construction of the Air Terminal Building. The new terminal building was completed in the fall of 2005. The North Peace Airport Society continues to work diligently to ensure that the airport is able to meet the needs of local industry and commerce. Planning for Fort St. John Air Show is Well Underway – by Scott Brooks, energeticcity.ca The planning for the 2019 Fort St. John Air Show is well underway. Fort St. John Air Show Events Organizer, Lana Neitz, says the 2019 event will be packed with talent and performers. “We’re looking at some really neat warbirds. We’re bringing the Kitty Hawk; we’re bringing in the Harvard’s of the Harmon Rockets… we were talking with some many performers down at the ICAS airshow convention. The Snowbirds will be here, and we’ve put in a request to the military to see if they will bring any other shows to do some tactical exercises.” According to Neitz, there will also be a huge fireworks display, and there will be some more performers added to the lineup as the show date draws near. “It’s a phenomenal lineup; it’ll be one to please everyone of all ages.” Nietz says the airshow’s sponsorship drive will be kicking off in January and it will help in covering costs associated with the show. “Our sponsorship drive will begin next month, so January. We will have Darlene Hamre visiting all of the different companies. We require certain funding, of course. We’ve applied for various grants; it takes a lot of behind the scenes to provide for these aircraft.” The Fort St. John International Airshow is taking place on July 24, 2019, at the North Peace Regional Airport.

  • Flying Together: the Southern Ontario Airport Network May 2017
    Flying Together: The Southern Ontario Airport Network May 2017 FLYING TOGETHER: THE SOUTHERN ONTARIO AIRPORT NETWORK 1 1 INTRODUCTION Southern Ontario is set to experience significant growth over the next three decades and is one of the fastest growing regions in North America. Not surprisingly, demand for air travel across the region will follow suit, rising to approximately 110 million passengers over the same timeframe. This growth presents significant opportunities for the region, local communities and their airports. As growth comes to Southern Ontario it is critical that we are ready for it. By working together, our region’s airports will be better placed to support local economic development, and in doing so increase the competitiveness of the region, the province and the country. Successful cities and regions around the world have reaped the benefits of a network approach to supporting air service needs, and by better using the available airport infrastructure in Southern Ontario, our region can benefit as well. This approach will ensure that Southern Ontario is well placed to keep the jobs and economic benefits of growth in air service demand in the region. 2 FLYING TOGETHER: THE SOUTHERN ONTARIO AIRPORT NETWORK 2 UNPRECEDENTED AIR TRAVEL DEMAND IS COMING TO SOUTHERN ONTARIO As the most densely populated and economically productive region in Canada, Southern Ontario is an engine of the Canadian economy. The region is Canada’s export powerhouse, accounting for 37 per cent of the Canadian economy overall, 39 per cent of the goods exports and 48 per cent of the services exports. 88 per cent of Southern Ontario’s The region is also home to several Fortune population lives in the metropolitan areas 500 companies, 28 universities and colleges, of the Greater Toronto Area, Hamilton, and an innovation corridor that features the second-largest concentration of tech Kingston, Kitchener-Waterloo, London, companies in North America.
