Hi Guys, Nice aviation museum right next to the entrance to the CFB Comox. The actual field with the aircraft on display is located across from the airport civil terminal. Free to enter both locations. They rely on visitor's donations. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53076290437_d2b43be136_b.jpg...

Nice set! Believe it or not... I have a K64 slide of the Voodoo taken in April 1992..... I don't think the pilots have been replaced since!
I can tell you that this Voodoo is being kept in pristine condition. One of not many airplanes on display with the actual pilots inside
Hi, Dual use airport with mainly military activity. Only few commercial flights a day. There is also nice little museum with interesting frames. I'll post pictures from the museum soon. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53072829295_f5b3495a47_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53071847987_7...
Hi Guys, Downtown Nanaimo airport is pretty cool place to watch floatplanes. Sun for photography is good in the afternoon. Busy place with lots of movements. In 30 minutes I've shot 3 Otters and 1 Beaver. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53069446217_f7f99f54b1_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/...

Thanks Guys! Lots of props and rotors at YVR. If the weather was nicer I would have stick longer and close to Helijet terminal. Helicopters were landing and taking off every few minutes. Some of the Helijet copters had special markings. The S92s and S76 are parked in the parking lot of Heli One Cana...
Hi Guys, Few hours from the wet Vancouver airport. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53061432490_d55cbdd3cc_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53060821938_7ae984a3a8_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53059453181_7459fc2f9c_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53059224410_105c36...
That's a co-incidence! I've visited the museum and the tankers in June 2023. :D Very friendly folks there. Treated them to some Dutch Stroopwafels for their kindness (I always bring some when traveling). Ref: https://arnoud.raeven.nl/oregon. I see that you were there in the afternoon. I was there o...
Part two consists of Erickson Aircraft Collection - Most of the exhibits are in airworthy condition. There is many more airplanes than the pictures show. I've edited maybe half of the collection. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53011745809_0f0692a029_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/530...
Hi, Last month I had the chance to visit home of Erickson Aero Tankers. Lots of goodies on the ramps. First batch consists of the aircraft not tied to the museum, and later on I'll post some shots from the Erickson Aircraft Collection museum. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53005646221_4b8c5a363...
Two nice visitors to MRB. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52956181994_704f050df0_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52955441427_e9dd1f0ac1_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52954736377_02d32b4b2a_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52955784258_0dd83cc4a7_b.jpg
Hi Guys, Recently I visited this place and had a chance to pop in to that Oregon airport couple of times. Unfortunately the time I was able to visit the airport Sky Jumper Sherpas were always in the hangars. They usually fly Mo-Fr between 10am and 2pm. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52935490847...
Later that day I was awaiting the airplanes which evacuated day before. Here are some of them. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52933176821_9332ffafc4_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52933331254_beb349dafb_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52932416428_a01b10713f_b.jpg https://li...
