Bladestrike Posted October 3, 2009 Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 I've done it plenty in the eighties/nineties, but can't recall ever trying it within town limits. Flew out of Kenora for almost ten years, and I know that parking lot. I can't imagine that crew not getting abit of flack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icewind Posted October 5, 2009 Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 There used to be a truck stop on the Trans-Canada just outside of Kenora with a field beside it. That truckstop had the biggest freshest cinammon buns you've ever seen ! ! ! I wonder if it still there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canukav8tor Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 Once you've asked the landowner (city) and the LEA to secure the area, you're good to go...yes, it was a slow news day, no doubt. Funny that yellow choppers with a red stripe don't get a second thought from the local folks, but when you look like a flying sludge pond...
