Fun Fact. The Wright R-760 Whirlwind Engine is the smallest radial in our fleet. I would say it has one of the best jobs though. Too Cool For Cowlings. (at Yellowknife, Northwest Territories)

Rain, Snow or Shine. Chucky is always there making sure the green birds are running fine. (at Yellowknife, Northwest Territories)

Not a nice day and it looks like rain all week. Might have to get some floats for the DC-3 and load up two of every spare part. Just in case there is a flood. #JoesArk (at Yellowknife Airport)

“They fight not for the lust of conquest. They fight to end conquest. They fight to liberate”- President Franklin D. Roosevelt. 4 years ago today I had the honor to jump with the Canadian PPCLI and the American Green Beret on the 70th anniversary of D-Day. Next year it will be the 75th, hopefully our DC-3 WZS (RAF KG330) and the Buffalo crew will go to Normandy. (at Yellowknife, Northwest Territories)
