The Langley Aero Club and Van's Air Force Western Canada Wing are holding the
second annual Langley RV Fly-in on Saturday, June 7, 2003 at Langley airport
(CYNJ). It'll will be essentially identical to last year's fly-in, only with
better weather. Keep an eye on the Fly-in web page for details,
http://www.vansairforce.org/CYNJ
Perhaps you're already the proud owner of a flying RV. Lucky you! Then you'll
surely want to fly in for a chance to win the People's Choice award for the
best RV, and to show off your beautiful airplane. There's also a Furthest RV
award, for the RV that flies the furthest distance to get there. There will be
plenty of space on the field for parking. You can come for the day, camp on
the field, or stay in one of the hotels near the airport. There are links to
the local Travelodge on the web page.
Currently building an RV? Then you'll enjoy our seminars. The seminar
schedule isn't set yet, but you can expect sessions on building, safety,
probably engines, and perhaps more. I'll be making more announcements as
details are set.
Are you an RV wannabe? Seriously thinking about building one, but unsure about
what's involved, the cost, the time commitment? Worried that you don't have the
skills? Then you may want to attend the seminar I'll be giving, "Introduction
to RV Building." The seminar will cover those basic questions, and others, and
will be a place where you can ask whatever's on your mind about the building
process. We hope to have a representative from Van's there, as well.
If you just like to look at RVs, this is probably going to be your best chance
inside Canada this year. There are about 40 RVs registered in B.C., and we
hope to have a sizeable portion of them at Langley. Last year we had 23 RVs,
despite almost none from Canada being able to make it, due to weather. We hope
to have all the great RVs we had last year, plus all those who wanted to come
but couldn't due to weather, and maybe a few more.
Naturally, we're encouraging anyone who wants to fly in, regardless of what
type of airplane they have. If you plan to attend, and especially if you plan
to fly in, please take the time to write me at tedd at vansairforce.org or, if you
prefer, sign the Guest Book on the Fly-in web page.

That will help us plan facilities such as food, washrooms, and customs for U.S.
visitors.
