"I
began my aviation career over 34 years ago as a bush pilot in northern Canada
where I flew Cessna, Beaver, Otter, Beech 18 and Twin Otter seaplanes over a
span of 5 years then had an enjoyable 27 years with the airlines. I simply
wanted to renew and relive the memories I had of those early days on the lakes
and rivers, the sense of freedom I felt with a seaplane, the daily exposure to
magnificent scenery and the hourly personal challenge of this type of flying. I
was surprised how quickly the old instincts returned under Tom's easy going,
patient manner. As has already been stated by many others, the aircraft are
indeed clean and well maintained and you will be thoroughly checked out on
floats! I can also guarantee you will find this area on Vancouver Island,
British Columbia a challenging and beautiful place to fly! Tom and Kristene, all
your hard work has paid off, I thank you and can't wait to return for my annual
review!"
