Joint Helicopter Command Flying Station Aldergrove
« on: September 20, 2009, 05:06:58 PM »
Just a thought - Now that Aldergrove is part of the Joint Helicopter Command and the surrounding areas have been used for low level flying training over the past few years, what are the changes of it being used to train Apache pilots? Wishful thinking or a possibility?
