Many will have followed with keen interest over past eight years the development of a Recreational Airfield at Olooloitikosh - or “Orly” - as it is affectionately dubbed. The facility, in which the Aero Club is a shareholder, has grown in leaps and bounds. Fifteen hangars, seven houses, an airport lounge and a runway have been completed on 240 acres of land, and much more is planned. The airport is being used by sport aviation enthusiasts, skydivers, microlights and gyrocopters, as well as for flight training. A second runway is under construction and will be commissioned soon.
(The name "Orly" come after the Orly airport in Paris, France)
