Aero-News Quote of the Day

"We still wanted to find a way to reach out to our communities with hope and inspiration for these challenging times. If we are not able to bring people to the airshow, it is our plan to bring at least a small part of the airshow to the people of our districts and villages. To that end, we are working towards an alternate event we call 'The Great Regional Air Hug' which will consist of an organized multi-aircraft flyover of our entire region! We will have aircraft of varying types and sizes, including some of our airshow performers, soaring through the valley overhead. A few adorning the sky with airshow smoke!"

Source: From the organizers of the 'best little airshow' ANN's Jim Campbell ever attended, the Vanderhoof International Airshow. Though forced to cancel for 2020, the organizers are still managing to make sure that the surrounding communities know that they care... and look forward to flying for them, next year.
