Randy Elkins wanted to be a pilot for as long as he can remember, and he made it happen, "as soon as my finances let me."
Now the proud owner of a Cessna 210, which he hangars out at Pemberton Airport with Pemberton Soaring, Elkins estimates that he has flown in and out of 124 airports across Canada and around North America.
But he reckons that the Pemberton Airport is one of the prettiest airports in the world to fly in to. "The terrain is just beautiful. The mountains. It's just very pretty."
For the last four years, members of the Pemberton Flying Club and other local aviation enthusiasts have organised the Pemberton Fly-In.
The Pemberton Lions Club provided food sales that helped make the Fly-In a mouth-watering success.
