Post by: Garry on Feb 15, 2026, 08:45 PM
Hello

I'm Garry Hunter From the old theplanpage.com.
I had to give it up  because technology outpaced the old girl.
I live in Ajax (a suburb of Toronto) Ontario. in Canada.

I mostly just lurk, but if I can help I will do my best.

Welcome Gary. Sorry to see thePlanPage gone, but life goes on.
Hopefully you will be able to post some pics of what you are working on next.  :)

Another Canuck from the suburbs of Toronto has landed  :)

Thanks George and all who have kept the ascent of Small Flying Arts and Hip Pocket Aeronautics going.  Thermals and landings at your feet to all.

Hi efudd

If you (or anyone else in the area) need a night out with the boys, we fly indoors on Friday nights. Let me know and we can get together.

Hi Garry,

I am keenly interested in indoor flying Friday nights.  I participated in the sessions at Markham High School in the late 1980s.  Might have some oldies lurking in storage boxes.

I live in Etobicoke by the Mississuaga border, so I may face a lengthy journey.  But it will be worthwhile!

Many thanks for your efforts to distribute the plans of Earl Stahl.

Hi Gus

I flew with the group in the begging, then moved to the U.S. for a few years.
This is what is left of the group. You might remember John Marett, Bob Fisher, Barry Fletcher, David Oh.
We fly on Friday nights from 7:15 - 10:15 at Bill Crothers High School (44 Main Street, Unionville, L3R2E4)
Dig out the old boxes.
