Canadian Xpress September Fly-In: Look Up, Way-Way Up
Canadian Xpress® would like to invite all pilots to join us on Saturday September 17th, 2011 at 10h00edt (14h00z) for our September Fly-In where we will fly to the highest commercial airport in the world.

The selection of Kandahar International Airport (OAKN) is due to NATO’s 2009 operations, with 5,000 flights a week. And the final Single and Busy destination is Sao Paolo’s Campo de Marte Airport (SBMT), that handled more than Continue reading
