The winning bidder for this item, with up to two friends, will enjoy a return private aircraft flight in a Beech Bonanza, from and to the Victoria Flying Club to a mutually agreed upon destination, with mutually agreed upon timing. Imagine – a weekend trip to Kelowna in just over an hour; Seattle in forty minutes; Friday Harbor or Orcas Island in eight minutes!

The airplane is a fully equipped Beech Bonanza (pictured above) and your pilot is David Longridge, a current and experienced pilot with commercial licenses in both Canada and the USA. Set your own schedule and enjoy the convenience and ease of flying privately, without having to deal with the airport or airline experiences!

Good form at a young age. Sophie demonstrates great body position, leg drive and "belly-button" focus as an Age Grade player! Mum, Stephanie (former RC Women XV captain), Anna Wray (RC's Coach of the Year 2016, and XV's player), and coach 'Bing' Crossley assist the drill. Canada has so many successful players who are examples of learning the arts at a young age. May there be many more!
