The Northwest Territories Flying Association (NWTFA) and Ahmic Air are excited to invite aviators to the 2025 Yellowknife Bush Pilot Fly-In on July 18 and 19, 2025. This new event will continue the tradition of the Midnight Sun Fly-In by welcoming visiting pilots and crew and showcasing the amazing aviation adventure opportunities available in the Yellowknife region. Planning is now underway with anticipated activities including a meet-and-greet, fly-out picnic to a local lake, and dockside barbeque dinner.
This event will be open to aircraft on both wheels and floats. Parking for aircraft on wheels or amphibious floats will be available at the CYZF airport. Parking for aircraft on straight floats will be arranged at docks near the event venue. Refueling information will be provided prior to the event.
The event schedule is evolving and details will be made available closer to the event. Online registration will be activated in early April 2025. In the meantime, to assist with our planning, we ask that pilots contact us by email to advise of their intention to participate, indicating the type and landing configuration of their aircraft and the number of people expected to attend. Due to aircraft parking and other limitations, registration prior to the event will be mandatory.
We recommend that accommodations and rental vehicles be reserved as soon as possible since Yellowknife is a popular tourism destination in summer months. Information on accommodation and other local amenities can be found through our Visitor Info page.
