High School Flying Club Soars by Janine Cross
Without an airport or team of vol- unteer pilots, COPA member Teena Della has found a remarkable way to engage children in aviation, all within the four walls of her high- school classroom in Port Coquitlam, B.C. What do the students in Teena’s Riverside Flying Club (RFC) do? Everything from building and launch- ing rockets to watching movies and flying kites. The 30 kids, ranging from grades 9 to 12, come for a variety of reasons; not all of them are initially intent on pursuing a career in aviation. For in- stance, fifteen-year-old April K.’s love of adventure and trying new things— which recently led to her obtaining a firearms licence outside of school hours—first brought her into the RFC where she has enthusiastically remained.

A New Destination For Taildraggers Text by Jean-Pierre Bonin | Photos by Jean-Pierre Bonin and Hélène Lavigne
City councillors in Les Escoumins, Que., located on the north shore of the St. Lawrence River, unanimously voted in June 2017 to support Totem Aviation’s project of opening an aerodrome within the city limits. They considered the project to be interest- ing, with eventual financial benefits for the community. Last September, we visited the aerodrome and were offered a ride in Totem Aviation’s Cessna 170. Situated just east of the village, the 14-32 sand runway is perpendicular to the St. Lawrence River and easy to spot from the air. The surface is newly built and, for the moment, recom- mended only for taildragger airplanes.

Prairie and Northern Region A privately operated Christavia MK I Amateur Built aircraft, was conducting a local flight from theI ndus/Winters Aire Park, AB (CFY4) with only the pilot on board. This was the first flight after the installation of a new propeller and a cylinder in the Teledyne Continental O- 200A engine. Shortly after lift-off from Runway 34, the performance wasn’t as expected and the pilot reduced the power to land; however, directional control could not be maintained.

30a cop flight | december 2018 Oshawa Airport Update Growth And Change On The Horizon
October’s municipal elections in Oshawa saw its former mayor John Henry moved up to become the Dur- ham Regional Chairman. This seems to bode well for the Oshawa airport since Henry attended all the airport open houses and town hall meetings. His approach to the airport was balanced and fair. The other encouraging change to Oshawa’s political structure is the election of Dan Carter who replaces Henry as the new mayor. During his previous term of office as a councillor, Carter had also attended airport open houses and town hall meetings. As a former TV broadcaster, Carter has proven he will listen to both sides of an argument and suggest a working compromise. This will be a challenge for Carter since several new council- lors who were elected are known to be hostile to the airport. defied all attempts to bring it on line.

CYPK An Airport On The Move
accurate navigation and proper and timely communication with ATC are of paramount importance to conducting a safe flight anywhere in the area. With ATC facing staffing challenges, it is sometimes difficult to get clearance to the circuit during busy times. Regular airport user and former CYPK flight- school owner Chris Georgas suggests a work-around. “If 08R or 26L is the active, request clearance to the parallel runway 08L or 26R, as applicable. You’re likely to get it,” said Georgas. “Then, once on the ground, request taxi clear- ance via Taxiway D to the main ramp.” Pitt Meadows airport management thorized control zone entry (29) and With residential development ever- recently held a meeting with stake- Navigation error (32). encroaching on lands to the east of the holders to provide them with an While some of the volume can be airport, the airport management team update on issues of interest.

Vermilion’s Airport Is Back Nascent User Group Joins Forces With New Mayor
Although it never officially left, the interest and involvement in Vermilion, Alberta’s local airport (CYVG) has returned. In early 2017, newly elected mayor of Vermilion Caroline McAuley, along with her council, formed an airport advisory committee to bring the aviation community together and, with council, explore all opportunities to improve the economic and recre- ational viability of the town’s airport. “By getting input from the aviation community and working with council, we can develop a stronger plan for our airport,” explained McAuley.
