WINTER OPERATIONS
The VFC will be returning to winter operating hours following the return to Standard Time on Sunday, 07 November. With the reduced hours, Dispatch services will only be available from 0800 to 1700 daily. Otherwise, Line Services will remain available into the evening, unless weather prevents flying operations, and flight training can still be arranged with your Flight Instructor (depending on their availability) into the evening.
UPDATE – 75TH ANNIVERSARY GALA
Due to the increase and continued applicability of the COVID-19 restrictions that were introduced by the Provincial Health Authority in early September, and the significance of their impact on attendance/ activities at indoor events, we’ve regrettably come to the decision to post-pone this gala event until such time the COVID-19 restrictions are more permissive. Please stay tuned!
