West Coast Air

The Aerosoft DHC-6 flies well, pretty good modelling, and the frames are like the Beaver. Haven't tried the wheeled and skied versions yet, and I'm hoping for a pile of Canadian repaints. The float version, without water rudders, is a definite challenge to manoeuvre, but fun once you get comfortable with manipulating the props.

I hate to say it, Wally, but, what has caused the downturn in ridership for West Coast Air? Gorgeous flight, though.

Love the A/C. Love the water. Love the scenery.
Great shots Larry.

Thanks Simon and Dan.

Dan, they're doing so poorly the pilots even "jumped ship"!

Perfect Larry, the bird, the scenery, everything.

I agree with Captain Peer, everything is amazing here Larry!!!! Beautiful job with these, simply fantastic!!!!

I am debating on getting this bird, perhaps Peer could give me back my credit card. SIGH, lol.

I did a double take when I first saw this post - there's an air company in NZ called West Coast Air with a very similar livery to that one, although they operate a Dornier 228. Great post Larry.

Great shots that take me home. I got my float rating in Victoria and love to fly into Naniamo. Have you thought about some shots flying into YVR float runway?
