Good day to VAF network.
I would like to see the interest in RVs and Rockets (since this guy owns an F1 Rocket) in trying to include a fly in for our 2018 Airshow. The 2016 show had a great lineup with a 14 Ship Mass Attack with F18/Hawks, Snowbirds, CF18 Demo Team, USAF F16 Demo Team, Melissa Pemberton Edge 540, Kent Piestch and the Skyhawks parachute team to name a few.
The plan for 2018 will be to have all our Canadian teams, a larger statics display and the F22 Raptor (this year we had the B52, F16 Aggressors, A10, C17, A310 polaris, CP140 Aurora, C130J, large Army display, large classic car display, Precision Exotics car track and many more).
The intent would be to open the invitation to arrive by Friday 1800 and leave at the earliest Sunday after 1800. I would not be open to people coming in for 1 day only. Pilots would be responsible to arrange their own Prior Permission request, lodging, car rentals and meals. This year, the show site had over 28 food vendors. You would have access to the site for 3 days and would be part of our static display. Due to being on a military facility, any aircraft arriving will be subject to inspection from our military police or RCMPs. As the show site needs to be secured at night, I do not intend to have people camping by their aircraft.
As an F1 Rocket owner myself, I think this could bring a unique attraction to the show site while giving the unique opportunity for you to participate in the largest military airshow in Western Canada. Military shows are not typically open to civilian traffic or fly ins. I would also love to open the opportunity to any USA RV aircraft providing they clear customs prior to arrival in Cold Lake. The tentative dates for our 2018 show is 20-22 July 2018.
If we have enough interest, I would make a case to open the show for the VAF and have an RV meet.
Thank you and looking forward to seeing the interest.
