2010 Convention Exhibitor Information |
Plans for the Annual UPAC Convention on August 20, 21, and 22 (rain or shine) are underway. The location is once again at Lubitz Field near Kitchener, Ontario. We can’t promise good weather, but we can promise lots of activity, hanger flying and a generally good time.
Many of you have made inquiries about attending and exhibiting at the UPAC convention. Here is the general information you need.
There is no charge for exhibiting at the UPAC Convention. We have an exhibitor area where you can set up. We do not supply any services; bring your own shade, tables, whatever. Don’t forget your tie downs.
If you are a dealer and want to do demonstration flights during the weekend, let the volunteers know when you arrive so you can set up close to the flight line. The airstrip is open for normal operations for the entire weekend.
We ask that exhibitors donate a prize for our draw. It can be a demo flight, gift certificate or whatever. These donations along with those from campers and attendees help to cover expenses such as the rented porta-potties.
If you are an exhibitor and want to attend the 2010 UPAC Convention, please let us know. Send your intentions to

Please let us know what you will be donating for a door prize so we can add it to the list.
There is a camping area which is also free; tents, campers or motor homes are welcome. We do not supply power or water. We will have burgers available at the Café Les Aires on Friday and Saturday evening and Sunday at noon, and breakfast on Saturday and Sunday morning. The BBQ lunch is Saturday at noon.
No advance registration is required although we do like to know who’s coming, especially exhibitors, so we can announce your presence in pre-convention issues of Light Flight.
We hope you can join us for this exciting grass roots aviation event with drive in and fly in visitors from across Canada.

Canadian Aviation Exposition |
UPAC had a display booth at the Canadian Aviation Expo the first weekend of May. For the second year, the Expo was held at the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum at Hamilton Airport.
Our friends at Why Fly have done a very nice photo essay which is available as "Complimentary Content" at www.whyfly.aero/photo-essay-cae-2010. There is a photo of our booth with Kathy and Jason, along with many other pictures of aircraft and other booths.
We hope you enjoy this photo essay, courtesy of Why Fly.

PayPal now enabled in Webstore |
We have now implemented PayPal as the online payment method in the UPAC Webstore. This change to a known secure payment method should raise the comfort level of purchasers as well as the administration team. Purchasers do not need a PayPal account to make payments this way. Apart from better security, the main advantage is speed - since transactions are handled immediately, there will no longer be a delay of several days before your membership becomes valid. This should help many people with their insurance eligibility.
One huge benefit to both UPAC and our customers is that we will no longer have access to your credit card numbers. The Directors have been uncomfortable with this responsibility. PayPal gives us a secure and recognised way of meeting security needs and reducing the chance of something going wrong.
The purchasing procedure has only changed slightly. Instead of being asked for your credit card details on the UPAC Webstore, you will be redirected to the PayPal site. Once you have entered your payment information there, you will be returned to the UPAC Webstore. You will also get two (2) immediate confirmations: one from PayPal, the other from UPAC. We will still process your order as usual, but since payment is immediate, your memberships and renewals will take effect immediately. You will still get confirmation as usual.
If you have any questions or concerns about this change, please contact me at
