26 - 27 August  2011 - The 2nd Annual East Coast Challenger Rendezvous Fly-In was hosted by Bernie and Shelley Rector in Lawrencetown, Nova Scotia.  You can find more pictures and full details soon from Bryan Quickmaire the Canadian National Challenger Distributor website  http://www.challenger.ca/  

 

  

26 - 27  August 11 - 2nd Challenger Rendezvous  -  Friday evening we arrived just in time for supper at the local pub and latter gather back at Bernie's place for a campfire. Saturday morning started with bacon and eggs in Bernie's Hangar watching pilots landing.  Bryan Quickmire from Challenger.ca gave a briefing of the old and new changes to the aircraft.  Bob Lake from Kingston also gave a detail presentation on how to build an aircraft from start to finish. That evening we all enjoyed everyone's company for dinner will lots of laughs wondering what tomorrow would bring with Hurricane Irene approaching the Atlantic coast.

 

 

Special Thanks to Pierre & Helene Brisson from Ultralight Solutions generosity and Bernie & Shelley Rector hospitality for hosting the event.   The knowledge and experience from these pilots made the event very interesting and informative.  This year I didn't fly my Challenger Aircraft due to Hurricane Irene approaching the East Coast.  Planning to be there again next year and we are looking forward to meet new friends alone the way.
