found this on RC Canada Shearwater R/C Flyer's
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After a long shut down, (post 9/11), the Shearwater Flyer's R/C club is on it's way to commence flying once again. We're hoping to be fully operational by early March. We have unfettered access to the now deactivated main runway at Shearwater, which is separated from the Heliport, by security fencing. Featuring 10,000 foot by 200 foot runway, with intersections, tons of pit space, parking, etc. It's a MAAC Club, and although it's a CF Personnel Support sanctioned Club, we are allowed 50% civillian members. We've also been allowed to honour the MAAC regulations regarding visitors. Long story short, if you're looking to fly your huge jet, scale warbird, aerobat, heli, or glider, then we've just the locale. We have club trainers and radios, so members can receive training to the MAAC Wings level, with no big outlay for aircraft/gear! We also have agreement with the Shearwater Aviation Museum, for use of a conference room, for meetings, and the setup of a Real Flight 6 Sim room, with projector and large screen, for training. We're looking forward to a great flying year, and will announce our first open fun-fly, as soon as we're fully up and running. Hope to see lots of people come to visit!
