- I took the R66 to Hope to deliver food to stranded people who had to evacuate from their homes due to flooding. My parents had people stranded with them as well so I was able to transport them back with me to Abbotsford.

This is amongst the best footage available of the flooding. Better than any 'news' station and you did it while flying. Good commentary, good attitude, good everything. This should be on the news as it is real life now. Excellent.
This^
I agree 100% it takes a privet pilot to show us what’s really going on yet the ones that get paid millions in media funding can’t seem to figure it out. It’s should show all how they regulate what they want you to see or not.
I agree thanks for this awesome perspective
All news stations are fear porn...Climate change and Covid..
@@charsback and crime.
This was great info, better than the news imo. Cheers for helping those folks out.
My relatives live on Judson Lake. My husband and his brothers got free flying lessons because that’s where Abbotsford airport docked float planes. So thanks for helping people. This was great to see.

This mission is a great example of the value of general aviation for the community. Great coverage of the situation by PY. Kudos for using the fleet and his time to help out the people in need.
My goodness I hadn't even heard about this state of affairs in BC what with the US Media being laser focused on the trial in Wisconsin. Keep your chin up, Northern neighbors, and keep helping one another out as much as possible. I wish you all the best in the coming days and weeks!
Thank you. Keep your chin up too.
As awful as the American shooting in WI was, amazing how they get distracted by one event that only serves to divide them while other important issues inside and outside their country get totally ignored.
@@colingenge9999 There are many theories concerning why the American MSM does this sort of thing. I remember that in the 80s and 90s it wasn't like this at all.
The most likely reason is due to the financial struggles of legacy media. Fewer people are buying newspapers or watching televised news UNLESS there's something with significant "shock potential." They can further this shock potential by polarizing the incidents with broad editorial interpretation. This theory completely ignores any repercussions that their polarizing viewpoints might make on the American population in favor of higher profit margins.
It can also be said that the carefully crafted editorial interpretations of events influence alternative media sources that do not have the resources to independently verify or investigate the truth of an incident.
Meanwhile social media is influenced by financial incentives to push legacy media stories on their platforms.
On the other hand there are also theories that suggest that the US Government is directly influencing legacy media and visa vi social media. The purpose of which is to keep the civil populace divided, ignorant and to allow government to make sweeping financial and/or authoritarian powers grabs at their leisure.
Stepping into conspiracy theory territory there are some that have even suggested and even more nefarious purpose behind everything. Some actually believe that this division, chaos, hyper-inflation, political flubs (like Afghanistan) is an intentional effort to spin-down American geopolitical influence and financial strength.
The reasons vary across the board. Some say it's for a socialist takeover of US government. Others claim that it's to bolster the PRC's rise to prominence.
I know that the US Government has wanted a compliant and docile population for a very long time. Sewing chaos and discord across the country while keeping the people ill informed of what is actually going on around the world is one way of accomplishing that regardless of the reasons. Still I'm pretty sure it's more about profits than anything.
As far as the WI shooting goes, I agree, it was a tragic event. Two people lost their lives and a third was horribly maimed. A fourth was psychologically scarred for life and will remain a pariah for many years to come.
Mr. Rittenhouse was young, dumb and naive to think that he could act as a third party that night. Regardless of how noble it might've sounded to embark on a self-appointed humanitarian mission to provide first-aid and conduct fire-fighting operations in the midst of a riot. Just being a third party that was uninvolved with the rioters made him a target but carrying a rifle while doing so put a huge bullseye on him.
@@athelwulfgalland you literally wrote a small "editorial" on editorials. From all I've read, blame 60 Minutes... Before 60 min came along "Real News" barely covered its own bills to keep the ball rolling, it wasn't exactly a high profit margin. Once big media figured out sensationalism, AKA "blood sells" it all went downhill fast and cue the 90% by volume commercials for big pharma, who'll stop advertising if they don't agree with the "programming". The other big issue is the majority of all "media", TV, Movie and Print is owned by 6 corporations. Guess how many lean which way? 👈🏽
@@athelwulfgalland great write up. I do believe alot of what is going on if for wealth. More for them and less for us. And probably a few spin offs in their favor. What they are??? Who knows.
I look at it this way. We can't control that happens, but how can we learn from it and gain more wealth for ourselves??
Thanks for your input!!
Prayers from my farm north of Fort St.John. I grew up on Marion Rd. In SumasPrairie. We sold our Abby condo in spring due to COVID and drowned out crops 2 years in a row. Our home is open to anyone in need. Could accommodate a family. Would like to see some coverage of Yarrow and Arnold communities if possible. I was born in 1948 and was evacuated at one month to higher ground. I am thankful my family and friends are safe. I can hardly believe what I see.
lived on Arnold Road from 64-72. survived being snowed in for two weeks in ‘67 with no heat. lots of high water weeks. lots of brutal winter conditions. But never flooded out. So sad to see this. Best wishes for the whole community. 🙏
@@blueman5924 oh my goodness! I might have known you! My parents were Henry and M. Wiens.Half mile north of Vye Rd., You must know B and R Wiens.Though lm not related to B. We were in the same class at school. R was my neighbor for years. They were evacuated early Monday morning. Live on Arnold Rd., for 50 years.We moved to a farm beside the freeway on the parallel rd and C street about 1967. Dad also owned the land where the golf course along the freeway is but sold it as farm land. Some realators had connections.Got married in 69.Vic and I have owned our farm in “Siberia” for 50 years but Arnold was my home for 18 years. I didn’t enjoy picking all those raspberries.I remember 1967,,,,,,the milk tanker stopped on the Freeway and dad had to haul the milk up to the freeway in milk cans because it was too icy on the parallel road. To think that both my former homes are under water and to think of the dairy farmers anguish kept me up a while the past 2 days.Lots of memories!! Will Upper Sumas school survive this? It’s 100 years old.My husbands sister still farm the land on east side of Vedder canal. I’ve often wondered where my former neighbors are now. Mom and her friend M. Stobbe are still alive in care in town. My family is in places from Maple Ridge to Kitchener. If you knew my younger sister C. Please pray for her. She just had a stem cell transplant, for cancer. Hi to all I used to know and lm praying for all.🙏🏻🙏🏻 Cheers from the “Republic of Peace River north” where we never change our clocks and believe in independent thought,,,,, and dislike being told what to put in our bodies unless it’s Sviebak,pluma moose, and farmer sausage.
Dorothy, you are a generous soul
All yakking about climate change but no on is saying that the flooded area was Sumas Prairie lake area that was pumped out to make farm land and the water is just reclaiming what was taken from it.
You guys are amazing. Thanks for all that you do. ❤️
Great coverage, thank you. We are in Rosedale, right in the middle of all of those slides, but this is the first I’ve actually seen about what’s happening. Stay safe!
" Canada: In every City / Towns across Canada there are connecting Deep Underground Military Bases (DUMBS) / Tunnels. When those DUMBs /Tunnels gets Flooded (for cleaning and sealing them up) you can expect to see scenarios of the likes in the Cities of Abbotsford, Merritt, Princeton, etc, etc in British Columbia.
..... .....
If you’re walking around your town/cities - stay away from the man holes. It could be connected to the Tunnels/Dumbs underground and the Allied Troops are blowing them up. Sometimes, you will see smoke or fire coming out of these holes. Or you will see sink holes in the middle of the streets. So be aware and steer clear. The cleanup is being done everywhere in Canada (large cities, small cities, small towns) wherever there are DUMBs and Tunnels. "
Funny, I just came here from some trans tiktok user asking everyone to stop using “guys” for a gender neutral pronoun. To quote Spongebob. “Good luck with that!”

16:21 HUGE THANKS to the emergency responders that rescued me from these mudslides!
I was trapped in between that big slide westbound and the eastbound ones.
Firefighters had me evacuate my vehicle on foot, and climb down the cliffside on ladder to the railroad below.
Once we were down the ladder we all heard a loud "tsunami"-like crash sound from above where our cars were and the firemen where screaming "RUN!!" so we all booked it down the train tracks running for our lives thinking that we were about to get flushed out down there from the road above us! We ran a good distance before climbing back up onto the road (with a fire ladder) where it was "safer". I was absolutely gassed, and even as a runner have probably never ran so hard in my life. I can see now in this video that the mud slide did end up crashing over the train tracks behind us where we were running! Someone I was evacuating with actually fell behind a bit and got swept off their feet from the current of the incoming flood. They made it back okay thanks to the heroes (firefighters).
Then after that we went for an ambulance ride to safer pickup location, as this still wasn't a stable place to be. Our ambulance got stuck, I assume where the road collapsed at 16:57. I was inside the back of it without any good windows plus it was dark outside, but the driver and the paramedic were panicking, freaking out, "we are running out of road! The road is giving way! We're gonna get washed out!" etc. Once again for the 2nd time that evening we all thought we were going to die. I called my loved ones for one last time right about now.
After frantically reshuffling the emergency vehicles that were blocking each other, having a better look at the situation in the poor visibility and doing some fancy ambulance maneuvering and later off-roading over the median to the other section of the highway, we eventually made it out okay and safely to Chilliwack!
Oh my, what an emotional roller-coaster that was!
Once again BIG THANKS to our heroes (1st responders) for all you do! You guys are absolute legends.
That was gripping. You are a natural born story-teller. Glad you made it out alive.
Thanks for typing that all out! What a tale! You should save it and make sure your kids (or other family) get to read about it one day! My grandpa survived an avalanche when he was a young man and his journal entries about it are incredible to read.
Whoa! 😳
Dude!! That was epic! Especially since you have a very good ending, in that everyone was spared! 💝🙏👍
You definitely have angels ~ Thank God you are safe 💚💌
Zachary, I am glad you are safe and sound today. Your story is powerful and your ability to manage despite serious threats is amazing.
Praying for everyone in BC who is affected by the flooding. So happy to see everyone reaching out to help each other.
Reminds me of the 1998 ice storm, which I lived through. We escaped total evacuation with 12 hours to go!
My thoughts, love, and support are with the people affected by the floods.
That one girl is from Penticton, I live there!!
It's been a crazy week! Ended up housing 7 people who were completely trapped in Hope until Tuesday evening when they got a single lane open on the 7 as well as a passenger train for the people on busses. Glad to see that they're making progress on the highways, hopefully we'll be able to get commercial vehicles soon to restock perishables in the stores but that might be a while.
Thank you so much for bringing the food to camp Hope! It's been incredible to see the outpouring of support for those in need, from the camps, schools, and churches in Hope! I wish you the absolute best
@TheRealLoganYT Yes it is?
I'm an Ontarian... I initially heard about this tragic flooding when Steve Wallis got stranded trying to make it from Edmonton to BC's coast area. I hope everyone in the effected area gets the help and food that are needed. Kudos to your company for helping out!! The video footage of the flooding is something I've never witnessed in my 53 years.
Thank you for the great coverage. My son and his family live in Abbottsford but are high and dry. We just had our first blizzard of the winter in central Alberta. Nothing like what you all have experienced. We've been praying for you all and especially for the farmers with livestock that need evacuating. God's blessings to you.
Great to see you guys helping out, crazy to hear all the traffic on the ATC!
So scary to see the extent of the flooding and the damage!
The few times I flew with you, or watch your videos, I have never heard the radio chatter so busy. I was thinking about you today and I'm glad to see that you're okay Mischa. Prayers and hugs my friend 🤗
@Ariel Traasdahl what?
What a perfect Video showing the amount of destruction! Thanks for giving such good details as well. Sure Glad I live in Prince Gorge, but this even affects Us up here.
100mm is headed your way this weekend! Stay safe!!
Lived PG for 20 years. Awesome place to raise kids.
Very good video of showing it I googled map it the other day to try n figure it out
Appreciated, thank you - I’m in Kelowna and our Grocery stores are emptying out without deliveries from the coast.
Your supply lines are effected that below you is cut off from Vancouver till the roads are cleaned up, cleared and reopened. Better prepare for the long haul.
Wishing everything gets back to normal as soon as absolutely possible. Cheers from Regina Saskatchewan
Hey Mischa, thank you so much for the update. So sad to see what's going on in there. I'm glad you guys are okay. Tried to call you today, but I assumed you were busy rescuing people. Thanks for the good work you to do for the community. And take care, cheers - Tom Fahrnik
Thank you for the aerial view it really puts things into perspective. Such an overwhelming amount of work ahead to clear things.
Your excellent coverage was a real eye opener, most extensive yet.
The best footage available of the flooding. Better than any 'news' station and you did it while flying a freaking helicopter. Bravo dude. Subscribed!
Agreed. The mainstream media lies.
I did subscribe. , great footage for sure., better then the fake news!!
This reminds me of 2 events here in NJ....the prefect storm in 1991 and hurricane Sandy in 2012. Water everywhere. I hope everyone in BC is safe and more people like yourself come together and help each other out. You'll get through this....God bless🙏
Trust me it’s not really safe at the moment
All yakking about climate change but no on is saying that the flooded area was Soomas Prairie lake area that was pumped out to make farm land and the water is just reclaiming what was taken from it.
Thank you for sharing this video! I’ve friends - Dave & Alicia Murphy who help run a campsite in Hope. It’s wonderful to see how the community is pulling together to help those who are stranded and needing help. Blessings to you and your team for all that you are doing.
Prayers go out for all of the good folks suffering from the flooding
Wow...st. Louis, MO USA devastating news. Praying for the ones who lost their homes. The camp taking in all those people is amazing. Thank you for helping out. I just had to subscribe 😊
Thanks so much for sharing. It is awesome to get a first hand look at what is really going-on and great to see people helping each other out. Keep up the great work!
Wow this is very similar to what happened in Australia in 2019-20. Horrible bushfires which led to major flooding. We’ve had some flooding in the last couple days out west from where I am. I’m hearing a wet summer for us down here in Australia so hopefully not in the flooded areas we have already. Glad you guys at BC helicopters are ok and helping out where you can. Fantastic to do that. Hopefully the flooding subsides quickly and you can start rebuilding soon 🤞🏻
I personally believe that they use cloud seeding to make it rain, and direct energy weapons to melt ice and start wildfires. Silent war.
@@sarahstauffer4874 The bigger silent war is the cv scamdemic charade.
Yeah we get huge fires every year in BC since I was a kid.. this year many were arson but they said climate change
@@dallymoo7816 yeah much the same as here in Australia. We get a lot of arson too. Don’t know why, it’s prison and massive fines if your caught
@@sarahstauffer4874 North of Fort St. John, we’ve noticed planes at high altitude flying back and forth for who knows maybe 200 miles since spring. They leave parallel lines of what some call chem trails!! What’s that about??
You canadians are just so friendly and upbeat. We could use some more of that down here in curmudgeon land.
Not all of us, but the dickheads are busy panic-buying the store shelves empty!
Good luck - you're blessed to have the skills and equipment to impact people's lives in a direct and amazing way. Keep'on rotorin'
Really good video...thanks for helping us understand the gravity of situation. I have friends from Orting WA who are stranded in Hope. Thanks to everyone like yourself and others in BC helping everyone through this. Fly safe, heads up, eyes open and never assume anything!!!! 👍
Wow.Stuff you don’t see on the news. Thanks really brought home the scope of the damage.
Thank you so much for all those helping these precious people. ♥️
I am getting 100 times more news from a few minutes of helicopter video and the drones than 10 days of "news media coverage". Thank you for your efforts. I will save my steam for another day. Thanks again.
Best overview yet. Thanks for posting.
so sad and scary for all the people, animals and loved ones watching! Prayers for your comfort and a swift change to your fortunes.
What a good guy and great information. Calm, bright, straightforward, no BS and no slants to fit anyone’s agenda. The kind of guy you’d want as your neighbor and friend. I’m nowhere near any of what’s going but wanted to know more. I thought a two minute news clip would be fine but clicked this instead and am very glad I did. If men and women like this guy are behind all the rescue and relief efforts then Canadians are in very good hands.
Great video. I live in Chilliwack, was not a good feeling to be cut off and trapped. Our Hope neighbours still are 😔. Thank you to you and everyone helping out. Pandemic to fires to floods… Stay safe and be kind everyone 🇨🇦
We had some local flooding, but we got off easy, I think. The corner of Broadway and Airport is still flooded (I live near there), but the closed roads inside the city are mainly low spots where the storm drains are backed up. Some people in that corner were still pumping water from their basements yesterday morning, and I think the one driveway near that corner is still under water. Was driving down Chilliwack Central on Tuesday night, and the water from the fields was nearly cresting the road in some spots.
Your video offers a unique perspective of some of the damage from the flooding. Stay safe out there 🙏
All yakking about climate change but no on is saying that the flooded area was Soomas Prairie lake area that was pumped out to make farm land and the water is just reclaiming what was taken from it.
So glad you guys are ok! I’ve been waiting anxiously to hear how you were affected, I knew you would be doing everything you could to help your community, God bless you and love and support from your neighbours in alberta 💕
Thank you so much for the tour! We really appreciate knowing what is happening. Hope all the waiting people are safe and have what they need.
You guys awesome!!! A BIG THANK👍 AND THE WHOLE TEAM AND THOSE WHO PITCHED IN TO HELP SO MANY IN TIMES OF NEED.
I'm in Hope and it is great to see all the help coming in, thanks for what you do.
Great Report. Much better than the news shots!
One of the better videos of the flooding I've seen. Thank you!
Thanks for this, I live in Ontario now but lived in Chilliwack for 5 years, my mom lived in Penticton and my dad was in Surrey. Seeing it on the news is very different than watching your video.
What you're doing is amazing thank you.
Hoping everyone is safe. I am fortunate to be somewhere safe, but may everyone get their life back.
Best 'fly-along' I've seen so far, thank you for your good deeds and your effort in giving us a bird's-eye view of whats happening over there, certainly puts things into perspective, bloody heart breaking for the most and our prayers go out to all you affected by this, please try to be safe out there eh!
Thank you for the excellent footage and commentary. This has been the best source of information I have come across. You are doing a wonderful job helping the stranded and informing everyone. Thank you!
Excellent reporting
I’m watching from Santa Cruz CA and my heart is broken at what I’m seeing. We were so lucky not to have fires here this year but lots last year. Thank you for taking the food to the people at the camp.
My brothers and sister live in santa cruz.
My sister owns Teresa's Salsa.
My brother flew the skydivers from half moon bay and Aptos.
Other brother was a waiter at the ideal for a while
Wow. Thank you for the fly over and info on the fact that the flooded farmland was once a lake.
In an era of everything being politicized, it's important to keep perspective.
Well done lads, pilots, engineers and support crew, it's a reminder to all that you can't fight mother nature no mater how smart we all think we are
God bless folks like you helping reconnect stranded or isolated people with help, news, supplies, etc.
Terrific report, great to have your images to fill in the stories from there.
So thankful to see you and your family are ok. I saw the flooding on the news and instantly thought of you and your BC Heli team.
Thank you guys for all you are doing to take of those stranded in the flood. Stay safe as you take care of them. ❤️🙏🏼
Thank you so much for taking us along with you and thank you and all other pilots, river boat operators, our soldiers, the food banks, restaurants , medical teams, and strangers who jump in to help those affected by this huge natural disaster.
What a fun job! And he picked up a bunch of nice people!
I'm on Vancouver Island. Grateful for the tour of the area. We were cut off from Victoria, but otherwise unscathed. Fuel was running low, some store shelves empty, but single lane alternating traffic is now happening. Trucks (semis) are detouring through the US, so supplies are coming. My heart goes out to all the residents, so hard hit with this. BC strong!
I deeply appreciate your post. Thank you so much for assisting the stranded folk.
Thoughts from Utah! Visited BC many times and that area of the world is in my top 3 of places I've ever been. ❤
What a situation. I appreciate the real-time look and your description. We are over on Vancouver Island and have some flooding and roads washed out but very minor in comparison. Thanks again for the look and perspective of the devastation and also for what you are doing for those in need. 🙏
Great job! I don't think one can get the true scope of the devastation and flooding until it's seen from the air. THANK YOU SO MUCH for your insight into shooting it from the air. Awesome.
That HWY 1 shot before Hope airport...what a great example of when a river decides to change its banks. Amazing. Great coverage and narration, Thanks!
Hey 7 is open at Mt. Wood side to permit access to and from the Hope, Agassiz and Chilliwack areas. Food and supplies can now get to these areas.
According to Drive BC there is one lane alternating traffic at Mt. Woodside so access to Agassiz is possible however the #7 is still closed between Agassiz and Hope.
Incredible video. Best wishes to all affected - hope life gets back to normal soon and that there will be help with damages to homes, businesses and farms. Sending prayers from Oregon.
thanks so much for putting this up, it really helps with understanding how much damage there is
Thank you much for your effort to help those people, it's times like this we need to support each other! I was sure glad to see all those large Canadian military vehicles bringing relief and support to their fellow Canadians.
Thank you, Sir. An awesome ride along, giving an amazing window on the extent of the Hwy damage.
Thanks for uploading this.
Well, that's the most suspicious fire ever.
Thank you for that amazing aerial tour of the flooding and landslides - great narration, too! Sorry to hear of the situation. A great service you do shuttling food and people back and forth. Stay safe - from your friends back in Ontario.
Amazing footage. What a wonderful service you provide! Your a real blessing.💕
Watching the news this am, the RV fire had about 10 rows of new units untouched and upwind of the flames. Your fly-by shows 1.5 rows left.
When they announced that the fire was ‘under control’ was probably because there was nothing left to burn.
Thanks for this great tour of this rugged but beautiful Fraser Valley of BC💕
Under control, what a joke. They couldn't get a fire unit to it for many hours due to the flooding.
Thanks for the info, qas quite shocking to see. Poor people.
This is so sad, my heart goes out to these people ❤️ I pray that God gives you the strength and faith you need to get through this and that he blesses you with the courage to get through this and what you need on the other side of the flood. 🙏🙏🙏
The people passing sand bags to prevent the flood from reaching the Barrowtown pump station, or these helicopter pilots with the flight yolk in their hands, flying evac and supply flights to those stranded, and the search and rescue workers, do more good for us than thoughts and prayers. While the sentiment is appreciated, helping hands do more good in situations like these than folded hands. If you're in a position to help, don't be caught praying.
@@BlackEpyon...Faith without works is dead, anyone who's religious should know this.
Thank you for the incredible footage. It is an excellent overview of the situation. You are doing a great job!
Thanks for showing us all the different areas affected by flooding.
Thank you for the birds eye view! Can really see all the damage thats been done. Prayers for those affected from Duncan,BC
I've been there.... it's sad and terrifying! Nice gesture, man! Hope no greater harm comes from that situation for all of you there!
What a great video! Bill Gerber was my Skipper for 5 summers commercial salmon fishing out of Port Hardy back in '86-'90. Great guy! I like how he opened up the camp to all the stranded travelers.
Been missing "Campmeeting" every summer lately. Live down in Spokane now but would usually come up for "BC Campmeeting".
Thanks for sharing the video!... and getting supplies into camp...
This commentator has a very soothing voice. Whatever catastrophe humans face, he's a soothsayer, letting us breathe & center... I hope we hear lots more from him.
I am from Agassiz...living in Alberta. ..thx for vid
We lost all our cauliflowers to heavy rain in SW Australia over the last 5 months, 1300mm of rain ytd, our avg is 930mm, thoughts are with the farmers, just heartbreaking for them and to see their fields under water
Sending you love and prayers from Canada. 🙏🙏
@@sandyk571 Thank you Sandy, we're heading back into summer now, so things have dried out and we've replanted. After watching your farmers go through a dry hot summer, heartbreaking to see it all flooded, I hope the water clears quickly, prayers right back at you:)
Hope, BC had something like 300mm in 1 day or something. Wild!
@@mediamonitor980 Just incredible, hope everyone is ok
BC, an absolutely beautiful place on earth and a blessing to have grown up there in the 50's. Thank you for offering your help. I remember always carrying survival gear in my car when driving in the north.
Your footage is more comprehensive than any other news channel. Thanks for sharing . We need people like you to deliver news comprehensively especially in times of disaster.
that MD500 approach! Got to be ex-military haha.
The 500 only has 1 speed… Fast
Been watching all the news about this devastating flood but your coverage has much better view and info and glad while covering this news you also sending some kind of helps to the flood sufferings people. Praying everything get to normal soon. Stay safe. 🙏
Your profile name does not match the comment lmao 😂
@@Jam-cw7tq Named it 4 years ago, when the weather's still kinda normal, not much extreme weather. No covid, no devastating forest fires, not much record breaking floods.
Good job u guys helping out all those people. Things like this is why BC helicopters are the best.
Thank you for your service to humanity ! We will never forget your efforts ! !
Fantastic reporting, thank you, and so interesting. Any news on people living at Powell River? I visited there from Australia nearly 10 years ago for a choral festival, and have fond memories of there.
Powell River was not affected by the storms👍
@@djchipper thank you for this info
Flooding below you from same storms in Washington, and Oregon, also. Nothing on this scale though. You guys look to be in for a long recovery from this. Feeling sad for you all. Stay strong.🙏
1920's this was drained from a lake to farmland....we live further up the hill from the flooding, so we are okay; but my prayers go out to my community and friends who have homes/farms in this area. Now there is shortage of food plus Gas Rationing in our area and people are starting to drive further west towards Vancouver for supplies and gas, making a shortage there as well..
That sums it up very well, great job, thanks for caring and helping.
Thank you for the flyover report. This is the first I have heard of this. Prayers from Alaska
Fab footage. Thanks. This is great advertising for your business! I've been sending this video to friends across Canada and the world. i saw a lot of helicopters in the air in Chilliwack today. The damage to prosperous farms, animals, homes and businesses is shocking.
thank you for capturing this. & safe travels doing an incredible service here
So proud of you and the work you do to help others.
I have family in Maple Ridge and my daughter was explaining to me what had happened. Although they are safe, as a mother I can't help, but worry. The devastation is so moving and a heart filled message of hope and love goes out to the many people who are all affected by this natural disaster. I found the footage of the news to be somewhat unclear on the devastation and locations. I found your footage to be very clear including the geography lesson for those of us who are not familiar with the area, but have family and friends close by. Mischa from Pilot Yellow, you are a guardian angel to be able to provide so much help for those who are in need and stranded. This is by far the best footage I have seen giving such clear descriptions of what is where and what is happening where. Thank you soo much for providing the public with this incredible clear video footage. Be safe all:) Diane Foster from Pickering Ontario
Thank you so much for this video. It answers a lot of questions and has helped to set my expectations, being cut off from my home in the south Okanagan. I'm lucky I have a place to stay here.
I have to again take a shot at the corporate news media. I've only seen good coverage from private CZcamsrs. I get it that flooded homes and displaced people are important and tragic, but the total lack of any video coverage of the Highway 1 slides (including the Fraser Canyon), the Coquihalla washout, and the Sunshine Valley mudslide are frustrating. Given that it looks like Highway 7 to Hope, then Highway 3 to the Okanagan are going to be our best bets for getting home to the Okanagan and really anywhere in the interior, I would think a little coverage of those areas might offer some vestiges of hope for people who are cut off from their homes.
