It is not a guarantee, but right now the RV-14A is scheduled to come.

Default RV14

You know what would be REALLY cool to see at the fly-in is an RV14!! Always great to see Vans reps at the show!

Well I hope that the RV-14A can make it since it's the RV aircraft that I am most interested in. It will be great to see it and compare to other the RV two seaters.

There will be judging, the two categories are "Farthest Distance" for the aircraft that comes from farthest away (and amazingly, Van's has not always won this!) and "Best in Show" which will be competing with other aircraft too, not just RV's.

Looking forward to seeing any VAF members who can make it!

I haven't attended the Langley Fly-In before and will not be flying in but arriving by car. I am curious where to park and enter. Is it located along the flight line by the old Skyways building/ tower or over along the newer runway?

Drive-in parking is accessed from 56th Avenue, along the north side of the airport. Look for the signs along 56th, the entrance will be marked. The new runway is closed for the day as we park aircraft there for the fly-in. All fly-ins will use the north-south runway which is generally how the prevailing wind blows anyway.

Best advice would be to contact one of the vendors who are attending, and see if one can bring and put aside a case for you.

AerSpace Aviation - http://www.aerspace.ca/Products.html
Demel Aircraft Corp - http://www.angelfire.com/bc2/demel/

Also, the Canadian Museum of Flight, based on the field, sells oil by the case. I don't know if they carry Exxon but you could ask them. There is a discount for members, but even the non-member price is about as good as it gets in the lower mainland (at least for the Aeroshell 15W-50 that I use).
