Saint John Airport Open House Tomorrow


 Saint John Airport wants to increase its visibility in the minds of Saint Johners by holding an open house tomorrow and everyone from the area is invited to have a look see. It will be held from 3 until 7 come rain or shine with exhibits and a chance to take a flight. President and C-E-O Bernie Leblanc tells CHSJ News all too often it seems, the airport is taken for granted but while it may be federally regulated, it is not federally funded anymore.



He's not sure if people realize the airport is self-sustaining and they don't get funding from anywhere else and if people want the airport they need to use it, help develop it and support it.

At the open house, scenic flights will be offered by Blue Skies Above and vintage aircraft will be on display with many of them inside the Atlantic Flight Centre hangar.
