Our goal is safe flying and our mission is to make available to the experienced pilot, the latest technology in Reflex wings and high-tech flying accessories at worldwide competitive prices.

For the aspiring pilots or “newbie’s” we hope to direct learning options and training, and do insist that all flyers follow our Governments protocol with respect to licensing, registration and insurance of their aircraft and piloting while in Canada.

Whatever your interest is in this sport, we as pilots and people who want to be pilots, make our own choices as to what, where, when and how we fly. Personal choices – we make them ourselves, individually, and take responsibility for our actions and flying habits. As Ernest Gann put it so eloquently in 44’…

"Before take-off, a professional pilot is keen, anxious, but lest someone read his true feelings he is elaborately casual. The reason for this is that he is about to enter a new though familiar world. The process of entrance begins a short time before he leaves the ground and is completed the instant he is in the air. From that moment on, not only his body but his spirit and personality exist in a separate world known only to himself and his comrades.As the years go by, he returns to this invisible world rather than to earth for peace and solace. There also he finds a profound enchantment, although he can seldom describe it. He can discuss it with others of his kind, and because they too know and feel its power they understand. But his attempts to communicate his feelings to his wife or other earthly confidants invariable end in failure.Flying is hypnotic and all pilots are willing victims to the spell. Their world is like a magic island in which the factors of life and death assume their proper values. Thinking becomes clear because there are no earthly foibles or embellishments to confuse it. Professional pilots are, of necessity, uncomplicated, simple men. Their thinking must remain straightforward, or they die -- violently."
— Ernest K. Gann, forward to 'Island in the Sky,' 1944.

"Just try and remember," I said slowly," that if God had intended men to fly He'd have given us wings. So all flying is flying in the face of nature. It's unnatural, wicked and stuffed with risks all the time. The secret to flying is learning to minimize the risks." "Or perhaps — the secret of life is to choose your risks?"

— Gavin Lyall, 'Shooting Script,' 1966.
