We're goin' to the Yukon!!!
17-24 July 2010
I just received my registration information for the Yukon Challenge and checked out the registrants list for Beechcraft airplanes. There are four baby beeches and a Duke in this year's event. The interesting thing is that all four of the baby beeches are BAC members!!!
Roelof Dercksen and John Radysh out of Quesnel, British Columbia in their A23-19's,
Jeff Knight out of Cold Lake, Alberta in his B-19 Sport, and
Bill Franklin out of Rapid City, South Dakota in his BE23 Musketeer.
The BE60 Duke pilot is Chris Campbell out of Penticton, British Columbia...just in case anyone here knows him.
Sure would be great to have a BAC International luncheon as a sidebar to the Yukon Challenge and get to meet some other BAC members. Who knows, maybe John Lovelace will let us capture the group with our planes and the International Region Banner for a TV spot..... who knows.
Anyway, just wanted to start a thread on the topic and let you guys know that I'm very excited about doing this trip this year. I think the bonus is that 3 international members and a north central member will all be participating in the same event.
