AFC will be adding a few precautions to our day to day activities going forward to protect ourselves and our customers from Covid 19.

- the door will be locked at all times. Please call 506-634-5565 to be admitted into the building. The reasoning for this is to disinfect all areas as people come through. We also ask that you use the hand sanitizer at the front door before entering the offices or the hangar floor.

- customers who have access to the building. Please use the glass doors only. The hand sanitizer is there. Please use this.

- as much as we love having you come over and have a coffee with us. At this time we suggest that we keep our distance and save our coffee time for when this blows over.

- please only come to AFC if you are coming over in an official capacity.

We know that some people will view this as extreme and be unhappy with these choices. It's our chance to slow the spread and protect the vulnerable in our community.

If you have any questions please contact Shawn or Amanda in regards to the new protocols.
