This will be our final activity for the 2023-2024 training year. Please come out and show the public what 103 is all about!

Dismissal will be NLT 1630 hrs.
The meeting point is CFS Abbotsford, near the Abbotsford Airshow compound on the east side of Abbotsford Airport, NOT the main terminal building. Attending cadets will be provided with a map indicating where to go. Cadets should wear appropriate civilian attire, and should be aware that the airfield environment can change from warm and comfortable to windy and miserably cold (and vice versa) within just a couple of hours. Names will be drawn randomly on June 3. Cadets will be notified at the email provided. Sign up online for a chance to participate in power familiarization flying on Sunday, May 19.

The meeting point is the main terminal building at Pitt Meadows Airport, which is located at 18799 Airport Way, Pitt Meadows, BC. Cadets are expected to be at the airport 30 minutes before their assigned departure time, so that we can get the appropriate documentation done and carry out a safety brief. The entire experience, including briefing time before takeoff, takes an hour, i.e. a cadet on the 0945 departure will be expected to report to ground staff NLT 0930 (and ideally, 0915) and will be finished and free to leave by 1030. Cadets should wear appropriate civilian attire. Names will be drawn randomly on May 15.
