To whom it may concern, my hubby just turned 40 and has a love of the old planes. We love in lacombe and we see all the amazing planes sometimes daily. Dans dad was a pilot. I'm am just wondering if I could get Dan up in the air in one of the old birds. My email address is manningtara1@gmail.com I would love to do this for him. If anyone has a contact or knows someone that would be able to do this for me I would be very appreciative. Thank you in advance.
Been there a couple of weeks ago, mid-May '13, passed low and over. Fairly easy to find, though not many landmark features around. Looks like a private airstrip, currently not quite taken care of. It is listed in CFS, though without a chart - unusual! There was an empty hangar at the end of the airstrip, and southbound approach was almost over the rooftops of the farmers' house. I refrained from landing there due to a visibly rough and deteriorated surface - and that's a pity, as location is pretty neat. Hope this strip will recover at some point, heard rumors about that, but please check with the owner before arriving!
Good to hear about Ram Falls! Wondering if you, or anyone, has ever flown into the Shunda Airstrip (east of Nordegg) or the Brazeau Airstrip. straight north of there? I see they are abandoned but are they landable? Thx
