Bucky Posted June 6, 2013 Posted June 6, 2013 http://www.rcaf-arc.forces.gc.ca/v2/nr-sp/index-eng.asp?id=13890 Hi Guys,I will be at the Exercise Maple Flag 46 open house on Sat.June.15th. Just wondering if any Albertan Dogz can make it there,.... B. Quote
Gothkrieger Posted June 6, 2013 Posted June 6, 2013 What is happening at the open house, it sounds like static displays but I have no info on that, do you? Quote
Bucky Posted June 7, 2013 Author Posted June 7, 2013 No I have no info on what will be goin on....hey Goth,Im only about half an hour from Bonnyville.....lol. Staying in a motel in Elk Point,....workin around here for the next 4 months. B. Quote
Bucky Posted June 7, 2013 Author Posted June 7, 2013 So I just went on utube,and from what I see there is some sort of demonstrations from different aircraft.....even if it is only static displays,I'm goin...Ill try to get more info about this years event. B. Quote
Gothkrieger Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 What link to utube did you look at, must have been some past open house, this year's might be totally different. I will try to make time tomorrow to call the base and see if I can get info on what they have planned for this year. I fly with some pals (IL2) on Saturday afternoons, so if I am going to go I would have to be back in B'ville before 3. With that in mind I would be inclined to go on a morning / early afternoon trip. I doubt that they will put on much of a demonstration if is similar to one I have seen in the past, pretty tame. Now if they had some WW2 warbirds on display and in action, that would be a different matter entirely. I don't blame you for going no matter what, like you are in Elk Point, and what goes on there, not too much. So what work are you doing in Elk Point? Quote
Gothkrieger Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 Called base today. Static displays mainly. There will be a small flyover at 42 Radar site (now a museum) at about 10:30. Are you still going, and if so when? I have a very limited time window on that day. Quote
Rattler Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 Dang! A bit too far away for a day trip..... Got to go to the Lancaster museum in Nanton 2 weekends ago, though. Model competition - my youngest won silver for his 1/35 scale NATO AVGP Cougar, the vehicle I used in the army. His first ever competition, and the little bugger wins a prize! Quote
Bucky Posted June 14, 2013 Author Posted June 14, 2013 Well guys,....just saw on the news,the open house has been cancelled due to bad weather......shame on you Alberta weather.. B. Quote
Gothkrieger Posted June 15, 2013 Posted June 15, 2013 Too bad, did not hear that news, thanks for the heads-up. Quote
