The maps (shown below) describe the arrival route to Abbotsford Airport. The es**rt officer, Cadets, and parents/drivers are required to wait at the access gate (at the end of the short dirt trail) for an es**rt from the Gliding program. Parents/drivers must not leave until the es**rt from the Gliding program arrives. Under no circumstances are the es**rt Officer or Cadets authorized to enter the airfield through the gate without an es**rt from the Gliding program.

It is imperative that the parents, drivers, Cadets, and es**rt Officers understand that they are not permitted on the airfield without an LMFV gliding es**rt. If the parents or drivers for the Cadets arrive late, they are required to call the Site Commander or the Squadron Es**rt Officer and request assistance. Parents or drivers are NOT to seek out assistance or direction on how to get on the airfield from any of the tenants at the airport.
