As a member of the Windsor "Bad Attitude" Squadron (RV-9A 2nd row left facing the camera), it's great to hear about all the other Canadian RV hometown pride! Love that they're scheduling home field events. The Windsor crew LOVES to travel (both south as well as north of the very close border) and does so whenever wx, time and money allows. We would love to meet up with other groups. Hometown squadrons...keep posting!

Langley had 22 based on the field at one point, but I think we're now down below 20 again. Every once in a while one taxis past to a hangar and I wonder where the heck it came from, having never seen it before... There are so many you lose track!

I remember the 22 number because it seemed so outrageously high at the time, but it was a group of us listing the airplanes on the field and multiple people could confirm most of the aircraft. It was about 2-3 years ago in about the June timeframe when we counted them up.

I can think of three that have moved away since, so that means we couldn't have more than 19 right now... Today I can only think of 16 on the field off the top of my head, and one of those, while in the hangar, hasn't flown yet... So not only are there lots in this area, but the turnover is high too.
