Inuvik town strip
all you guys that got your start at the old town strip will be sad to hear that the old green hangar burnt to the ground last night, likely the handy work of vandals, a real piece of history is no more. if those walls could talk.... well some of you will be glad there is no more danger of that!

On the old strip in town. Off to the right as you came down the road as I recall.

That was Raindeer's original hangar.

My first landing in Inuvik was at the town strip when I delivered a Super Cub from Edmonton for Freddie Carmichael a couple of years ago.
The registration was CF-GOD.

After over a half a century of flying no one ever died because of my decision not to fly.

I was beginning to wonder if this forum had anybody old enough to know what I was referring to! Probably not many though.

So you can't go there any more to get rid of the dose of clap you caught there?

Re: Inuvik town strip
well isn't that where most got it?
The hospital is still there but the residence is long gone.

Re: Inuvik town strip
