WHERE: Ottawa River - Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
WHEN: Saturday, 24 February
WHY: For Mo's terrific chili, of course!
The 29th edition of Mo?s Fly-In is set for Feb. 24 a mile west of the Ottawa VOR on the frozen surface of the Ottawa River. The popular annual event is put on by Maurice Prud?Homme and attracts dozens of aircraft. Ski-equipped aircraft are recommended but if weather permits an ice runway will be plowed.

Some of us, including a particular Russian who infiltrated our boarders, have had a wonderful time out on the ice at Mo's on the Ottawa River. That's Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. The event was cancelled for 2017 as a result of Mo having some health concerns. He's back up and running this year. The ice conditions should be very good. In past years Mo has had a terrific runway plowed on the ice, playing host to aircraft from ultralights through light twins.
Let's keep our fingers crossed for good weather. See you there!
Alfio's posting from a previous year gives a good flavor of what this fly-in is like.
