My flight to Bamfield
With my girlfriend working on the West Coast I thought the best way to get her home was by air. So with a little surprise side Picnic on a deserted beach, I brought her home. I hope you like the pix,

Gillis Bay fly-in at Texada Island
Gillis Bay fly-in at Texada Island
On July 13th 5 Airplanes from King George Airpark headed to Gillies Bay on Texada Island for their annual fly-in. As usual we were treated to wonderful hospitality from Doby and crew. With full stomachs from the pancake breakfast and great lunch BBQ, the attending crowd were treated to two shows from the Fraser Blues demonstration formation team. As for attendees there were a Nanchang, Beavers, a Murphy Moose, three L-19′s and the regular assortment of factory and homebuilt aircraft. CF-BUL made an appearance as well bringing back a flury of childhood memories.
Thanks Doby, we’ll be back next year.
