Sept 19, 2009 - KFC Community Fun Fly

We flew 136 people today with seven aircraft - all using 8 pilots. It was tiring - but we had a ball.  While Keith Watson and his better-half took care of ticket sales, the Air Cadets helped people in and out of airplanes. Anne-Marie supplied the much needed coffee (some from Timmies too) so Lorne and Howard could gas airplanes.

As proceeds from the event went to the Kingston Chief of Police Scholarship Fund at St. Lawrence College, some of  the local area finest were there.

The 15-20 minute flight took the members of the public up to 1,500 feet high, over the city to Fort Henry - and then north to Kingston Mills. At Kingston Mills we turned around to a long straight-in to runway 25. The folks at Flight Service kept us all safe and organized.
