      @fishercawkey, your kind words make an old girl blush. The support I get from my fans, makes it all worth while. It's easy, I capture what I love to SEE, and share it with anyone that wants to watch. My footage is getting better with every capture, I am working on my commentary skills. To speak well is an art, I am practicing my craft. I'm a work in progress. Stay tuned and thank you!

      @leftcoastcorrie Před rokem +1

      @swede5209, there is no more comfortable feeling to know you are with a highly skilled professional, you can usually tell, a good pilot is never complacent. The West Coast has some of the most challenging conditions in all of the world. A float plane driver(pilot)trained on the West Coast can get a job anywhere they want in the world, especially if they have an aviation education, or military time. Float time is a highly sought after skill. Happy pilots love what they do, it's a "thing" and they even love to do it on their days off, and many own their own private planes, or share ownership, and they do it until failing a medical takes the licence away, and then they try to pass the medical again, because they aren't ready to throw in the towel yet, most pilot loves to fly until they are told they can't., and then they try to get their licence back. Yes, they make it look easy, it's like a touchdown in football, it's a touch down in flying too! Thanks for your comment, come back again.

About a year and a half ago I did a face plant on the sidewalk, caught my toe on an uneven sidewalk and I wnt down, hard and fast. I was a bloody mess, spent 8 hours in emergency, 8 stitches and 2 black eyes later they let me go home. I was so fortunate, it looked worse than it was. No concussion, no broken teeth, no broken nose, just wounded pride. I have a tiny scar under my nose. I'll take the little scar any day, it could have been so much worse.

      @me55555able, thanks for your engagement, much appreciated. You should come to the West Coast and plane spot, I can point you to my favourite spots in Victoria and Vancouver. The Harbour Air sightseeing tour is a great way to see the city from above, and it's not too expensive. It's an excursion like no other. Thanks for flying with me today, new flights uploaded almost every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. I hope you will come back.

      @russellblake9850, thanks for your engaging comment. Yes, Harbour Air has an e-beaver that is still in the "experimental" phase of certification. It's an incredibly costly and lengthy process. The e-beaver was at my home airport YWH, I have a few close up static shots, posted. The title of that video is "unleashing innovation". I didn't capture it coming and going. I was fortunate to run into the founder of Harbour Air, Greg McDougall, a very smart and kind man. He was gracious and answered a few of my questions. It is a goal to capture the e-beaver in action. Thanks for landing with me, I hope we can fly together again.......Corrie

  • @robertmeldrum9215
    @robertmeldrum9215 Před rokem +1

    What a complicated area:
    Aviation procedures request that pilots take off southbound in the north/south seaplane take off and landing area.
    Landings will most likely occur either eastbound or westbound in the east/west seaplane take off and landing area
    or northbound in the north/south take off and landing area. However, wind, water and aircraft load conditions may
    be such that aircraft will take off or land in either area, in either direction.
    A Seaplane Inclement Weather Operating Area in West Bay may be used for take off in some high wind
    conditions. Because of varying weather conditions, boat operators should not count on pilots always being able
    to operate completely within the designated areas. Therefore, boaters must remain vigilant at all times.
    To aid
    boaters, four white strobe lights, located at Shoal Point, Laurel Point, Berens Island and Pelly Island,
    are activated by the Flight Service Station up to 60 seconds prior to a seaplane taking off or landing. Also, seaplanes
    so equipped will normally activate on board landing/pulsating lights prior to take off.
    Seaplanes may have to leave the Seaplane Take Off and Landing Areas to make way for other seaplanes and
    may use the Inbound/Outbound Traffic Lanes until being able to return to the Seaplane Take Off and
    Landing Areas. In addition, a Seaplane Taxiway has been established North of Pelly Island for the use of taxiing
    seaplanes during certain tide conditions.

      I am pretty sure this is a VFR operation only. Pretty sure there are no ILS systems here or any other water airports in Canada. The only time I have flown as a passenger in a Twin Otter in IMC, it was configured for land operations, ie on wheels. Interestingly, that one had a sophisticated and wildly expensive INS system-it was 40+ years ago, before the U.S. made the full capabilities of the GPS system available outside the U.S. military. Another thing, Vancouver harbour airport is the only purely water airport in Canada with a control tower, as far as I know. It’s on top of a 40-storey waterfront office building.

      @masseypadgham7113, thank you for your knowledgeable insight. I believe you are correct, and I'm sure, if you aren't correct, we will get word shortly. I can't believe how many great people share their knowledge with us. I have learned so much, I was just taking cool floatplane videos, because it made me happy. I watch what I filmed, it is so much better on a big full screen. I can watch over and over and it never gets old. thanks for your engaging feedback. I am not positive, I think Victoria is also a water airport with a control tower. I think the runways have numbers too. Victoria has more than one water runway, if i'm not mistaken. Thanks for flying with me today. The next flight land on this channel tomorrow morning at 4:30am pacific time. I hope you will take a front row seat and enjoy the view. Please come again......Corrie
