Hi everyone,

(yes this should probably be in the "Events" section.... oops)

The Canadian Museum of Flight (CMF) is planning a themed fly-in this summer called the "Round Engine Round Up." We are hoping to attract as many round engined airplanes and vintage aircraft as possible to our home-airport here in Langley (CYNJ). The reason behind this fly-in is to mark the 30th anniversary of the Canadian Museum of Flight, and the 70th anniversary of the home of the CMF, the Langley Municipal Airport.

It is still in the early stages of planning, but I can tell you that it's going to be a casual, yet fun affair. We hope to hold the kind of old time event that made aviation fun, and exciting. I will fill you all in with more information as it becomes available.

So, if there's anyone out there that owns a military or civilian airplane that has a "proper" engine on the front of it, and if you feel like making a trip up to the Vancouver area this summer, then you're invited to the Canadian Museum of Flight's "Round Engine Round up: 2008."

Note: Langley Airport's longest runway is 2100' in length. Hopefully that'll be long enough for most of you, but it does means we must say NO to all of you wanting to bring your B-17's and B-24's. Sorry, Maybe next time guys.


Cheers,

David
