In
Coastal BC, the easiest ways to travel to remote locations is by water and sky. In some cases, both at once. Around here, float planes are used for work and pleasure.
On
Powell Lake, most
float planes support the logging industry. They take workers to sites up and down the lake. We often see them skimming low through First Narrows in front of our cabin.
At times, boats and float planes share the same space.
But after a short run, the plane can take to the sky.
And off to work, or play, or to discover the adventure of a lifetime. -- Margy

So wonderful! I thoroughly enjoyed a visit to BC and hope to return someday. Thanks for sharing the photos!
ReplyDeletethey are such a delight to watch
ReplyDeleteMargy, this is such a great series of photos and from a different perspective. I got my private and commercial license years and years ago however after a near death experience as a young and inexperienced pilot I decided to stay closer to terra firma but I still dream of those times free of the earth's hold.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing
What a great series of photos! I love float planes, but it doesn't seem like we see them much around here.
ReplyDeleteI love your pictures. Very cool! I saw one in a movie once and I have always wanted to fly on one! : )
ReplyDeleteThank you to everyone for stopping by this week. Like Carolyn Wayne and I like to see things from up above, but also like Carolyn we are earth bound, at least here in Canada. - Margy
