Reaching Bremerton
มุมมอง 77หลายเดือนก่อน
We flew to Bremerton Washington for a conference that Janine needed to attend. While clearing customs in Bellingham, we learned that the runway in Bremerton would be closed for construction until the next morning, so we diverted to Tacoma and made the final 10-minute leg the next day. It was a scenic flight along the Washington Coast, Puget Sound, and Olympic Peninsula.

Cheaper than Driving?

Can flying to a far-away destination actually be cheaper than driving there? We did the flight to find out.
Changing of the Guard at the Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial
มุมมอง 2024 หลายเดือนก่อน
The Taiwanese think of Chiang Kai-Shek as the founding father of Taiwan. His memorial is guarded by perfectly still guards - similar to the royal guards in Britain. Once an hour, they hold a unique changing of the guards ceremony.
The Great Race - Cessna vs Boeing
มุมมอง 1025 หลายเดือนก่อน
We decided to race Air Canada on a route between Vancouver and Kelowna. Of course we didn't tell Air Canada about it. We didn't want them to hurry. :-) We definitely had more fun than the passengers on Air Canada, but did we win? You'll have to watch the video to find out!

Nice trip.
Absolutely correct on your evaluation of Moncton. I try to avoid at all costs.
It sure was a zoo.:-) What we didn’t come right out and say in the video was how unfriendly and unhelpful the folks at the Moncton Flying School were. All across Canada and the USA aviation folks always help each other out. In Moncton, however, it was almost hostile. Very strange. I’m glad it wasn’t just us.
Unbelievable, thought that the Boeing was going to win 😂
Janine spoke with a Boeing pilot, and he said that the 1-hour we added for "airport time" wasn't long enough. Should have been 90 minutes. So, according to him, we won by almost an hour! :-)
What an amazing place to ride! Sounds like you enjoyed it 🙂
It was beautiful. The intense storms on the 2nd day were … well … not so nice!
This is so amazing and inspirational. I'm about to embark on my PPL journey
Glad you enjoyed it. Congrats on starting the PPL. Very cool!
😂
I think you are supposed to stand still near the edge of the pool with your hand on the deck. It can then climb up your leg, over your shoulder and out via your arm.
Well Done. Amazing views!
Thanks
Amazing!!!
Hope you got the pictures. Some of them turned out really well.
Wonderful! What a amazing day! ❤🎉
It was a real pleasure taking you folks up.
😊great
Very nice. Thanks for sharing
Thank you! Cheers!
Great video, captures the highlights of the trip nicely. Question: how long did you have to wait for the taxi from the airport? At Sechelt in July 2022 we waited over 40 minutes - but that's a lot further from the airport than Qualicum Beach, I think. I'll subscribe now :-)
At Qualicum we usually get our taxi from the airport in about 20 minutes … because it’s earlier in the day. Coming back from the beach - later in the afternoon - is usually 40 minutes to an hour. We’ve had similar delays in Seachelt and other communities around BC. These smaller communities are having trouble staffing their taxi services and are unwilling to allow Uber or Lyft in to take some of the load … so long delays are pretty common.
Beautiful views of the city from the air!
Vancouver is certainly one of the most beautiful cities in the world. :-)
Wow, what a gorgeous place to fly!
If you and Bob are ever in Vancouver again, we will go.
Congrats on your double transcontinental crossings!
Thanks!
Nice video, will have to go back and watch your other ones!
Thanks James. I've organized all the videos (and blogs) in a single place if you like: flysea2sea.ca/
I love this whole series, David and Janine! When Bob and I lived in Vancouver, I worked on the Canadian Air Traffic system. To test our software in simulation, we would enter flight plans, including some on the route that you took through BC. It is a pleasure to see an actual flight along that route!
I suppose we can say that this trip was made possible, in part, by the work you did on the Air Traffic Control system. :-)
Your flight was gorgeous over BC - I agree - it's the best place to fly! Congrats on completing your journey! Woohoo!
Thanks so much!!
What a fabulous way to fly through your final day!!! Congratulations on a stellar adventure; thank you for allowing me to live vicariously through the three of you (dogs count!!!).
Thanks Karen. It's fun sharing it with someone who shares our sense of adventure.
Wow! That is very impressive. Well done and congratulations.
Thanks Peter. It was a heck of an adventure. Total of 17 days of flying (10 outbound, 7 return) and 60 hours of air-time. That little plane did us proud!
@@marvinwaleed I t did indeed
Glad you made it over the Rockies safely. Whew!
I'm very happy to say that such turbulence is very rare. This once, in 40 years of flying, seems like enough. 🙂
Has to feel good getting on the ground after that. 😮
I'm proud to say I remained "just" this side of screaming like a little girl during the aerobatic portions of that flight.
You guys are doing really well. I was just in Lethbridge 3 days ago and the I think everyday there were afternoon thunderstorm warnings.
I'm sorry we missed you at Lethbridge. Although, I suppose it was better for us to be grounded in Thunder Bay and miss all that fun in Lethbridge.
Some of your experiences with airport staff renew one's faith in people!!! Enjoy your trip across the Rockies!!!
Indeed. We have both decided that Prairie Folk are the best. Present company included, of course. :-)
I have NEVER heard "escape to Winnipeg"... ever!! 😂😂😂 Love it!!
People sure treated us well in Winnipeg (and Brandon - everywhere in Manitoba, really). We're about 3 days behind on the videos. LOTS has happened in Manitoba and beyond. Coming soon. :-)
I love following you two on your trip! Love the video ❤
I'm really glad! We actually returned to Vancouver today. I'm about 3 days behind on the videos. :-)
Looks like some challenging weather... I say, just feel fortunate you've been held up and missed the golf-ball hail and flooding in Brandon, Manitoba... or have you?!?!?! All my luck to you!!
It looks like the "bad luck" in Thunder Bay might have actually been "good luck" in disguise - as it helped us avoid golf-ball hail.
Jobs, schmobs... well, I can say that but am currently sitting at mine! Bahahahaha!!! Your adventure has kept me living vicariously through you while I am working; so... thank you!!!
Amazingly, we made it back in time to go to work - thanks to the Canada Day holiday buying us one extra day.
Sighting of whales, amazing! Sighting of Janine's huge smile and wave (to me, I am certain) amazing #2!!! And PEI... stunning!!! Enjoy!
Thanks Karen. It was fun how excited Janine was to have spotted those whales. I think of you often on this trip - because it would also be fun watching how much fun YOU would be having. Janine says: “Yes, that wave was for you”.
Promo SM 🙂
Umm ... I'm not sure what that means.
Thanks David. I have many fond memories of Red Rocks. It is very nice
It was Janine's first time seeing them - which was fun for me.
Safe travels!
Thanks Peter. Janine's conference begins today. On Monday, if permitted by the weather gods, we head to upstate New York and then Quebec.
Good luck as you continue!! Glad you avoided the Manitoban hail!! Todd is The Man!!
Thanks 👍
Well done!!
Thanks.
Nice!! Everyday get's more interesting. Good luck tomorrow.
Can't wait!
Any non westward direction has to be considered a win at this point. Still having great weather.
I'm kind of shocked, actually, by how close to "plan" it's gone so far.
Way to go!! CBs and Lots of crappy smoke further ahead.
As I remember you saying once: “Little airplanes rarely go where you point them”. :-). We are now in North Dakota which was never part of the plan.
Manitoba thunder storms (have to be a prairie girl to ❤)) them). 30+ temperatures lead to some amazing storms... fabulous on the ground but not so much when you are in the skies with it!! I hope you got to appreciate the intensity of thunder (on the ground) and are now safely flying out of it!!
I remember amazing thunderstorms in Drumheller a few summers back. Truly spectacular!
The patchwork quilt that is Alberta... beautiful to prairie folk!!! I am one of those...😊
From the ground, Swift Current wasn’t really that flat. it reminded us very much of the rolling hills of England.
Hey Janine how about meeeee?!
As soon as we get back, you’re up. :-)
200 pounds?!?!?! Ooh, adventurers shopping?!?!?! P😅ickerel in Manitoba (100 lbs), lobster in PEI(200lbs)!! You might have to leave some shoes behind...
Janine is planning to bring back books from the conference. So 100 pounds for that, 20 for the weight I’ll gain eating on the rode for 30 days, and 80 left over for shoes. :-)
A perfect couple of adventurers with the controller of worlds as passenger?!?! Just sayin' , Zeus might be my favourite back seat flyer ever!! Stay safe!!!
Thanks Karen.
Hey guys. Some good weather for you. You're off as planned, which is great. Hopefully the smoke will be minimal through Alberta. Good luck tomorrow.
Thanks. We sure have lucked out. Keeping our fingers and toes crossed for more of the same. 🙂
Congratulations on your first day. Beautiful looking conditions, great views. Looking forward to the rest of the trip.
Thanks Frank. It has been fantastic so far.
I love this video, David! Looks like you and Janine had a wonderful trip, and got great weather almost the whole trip! It was wonderful spending Christmas eve with you two!
it was really great to see you guys.
Cool! I enjoyed watching your motorcycle day trips!
Glad you enjoyed! Janine and I sure did too. :-)
Great storytelling, filming and editing. And nice flying too! In my next life I want to be your dog ;)
Thanks Joanna. Now that I think about - it WOULD be nice to by Zeus (my dog) :-)
