This one of course turned up at Duxford not that long after this and is now famous.

 Nice pics!  The surrounding scenery is so B C!! Stunning place to visit.  I missed out on Nanaimo and Campbell River. But saw one of the Catalinas as we drove past the airfield from a distance though.  But did get a visit to Port Hardy airport n a wet day... also entertained by black bears running across the road on outskirts of the airport and along the road

Very definitely so, quite wonderful images. After the nice Navion & beautiful Birddog I was primed & ready for the next piece of alliteration but no, so how's about delightful De Havilland's. :)

The hot Twotters?

 

There's just something so right about the way a Twin Otter on floats looks.

I took a trip in Twin Otter C-GKBC in July 2001 from Vancouver harbour to Victoria. Its not a patch on the Otter and Beaver trips but I enjoyed it. Landing in Victoria harbour was interesting!!!! :)
