100 Aircraft Set to Make Record Breaking Flight

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, Jul 14 (MARKET WIRE) --
In the early morning hours of July 17, 2009 a mass flight will depart
airports in the Vancouver region in what organizers feel could be the
largest group of aircraft ever to fly across Canada.

The 10-day flight, which will touch down at 30 airports across Canada
before it reaches Nova Scotia, is being organized to recognize the 100th
birthday of flight in Canada. Over 125 aircraft are registered for the
flight that will form a continuous line in the air more than 150
kilometers in length and will take two hours to pass overhead.

The flight was the brainchild of well known TV pilot and producer John
Lovelace. "I saw the 100th anniversary of flight in the USA pass with
little notice" said Lovelace. "Now that it's our turn in Canada we wanted
to do something significant on a national level."

Major stopovers where the airplanes can be viewed are Calgary
(Springbank), Brandon, Marathon, Sault Ste. Marie, Brampton, Gatineau,
Fredericton, and Sydney, with closing ceremonies at Baddeck, Nova Scotia
on Tuesday July 28th. The aircraft will also touch down at 21 other
airports across Canada.

"Many of us have flown across the country before but none of us have done
the flight with another 100 airplanes!" said pilot and spokesperson
Anthony Nalli. "There are a lot of logistics that will have to work
perfectly the first time."

The flight has the support of regional and municipal organizations coast
to coast as well as Transport Canada, Nav Canada, The Department of
National Defense, and 26 private and corporate sponsors.

The flight will be featured on a one-hour documentary to be aired latter
this year on both Global and History Television. In the US it will be
aired in Public Broadcasting Syndication.
