PILOT VLOG EP4 - CANADIAN MUSEUM OF FLIGHT
Episode 4:
Evan and I head to the Canadian Museum of Flight in Langley, British Columbia. We check out their static and flying collection, then Evan interviews ex-RCAF Starfighter Pilot Al French about what it’s like to pilot this classic Cold War supersonic jet compared to flying the World War 1 reproduction biplanes in the collection.

For the record, I am the first to say I am not the authority on aviation, airlines, aerobatics, air shows, or warbirds. I am just a regular guy who's chasing down his dream, and has a passion for all things that fly.
I began this vlog so that people who had an interest in this passion of mine could watch first hand what goes into making this childhood dream a reality.

The BIPLANE that survived WWII
The Canadian Museum of Flight, in Langley, BC, maintains and operates many vintage biplanes in their fleet. One of the most fun ones if the 1940 Fleet Finch, which was used to train pilots for WWII in the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF).
A big thank you to the Museum and to all of the hardworking volunteers for maintaining these historic aircraft for us to enjoy.
Thanks to Bill especially, for getting me back on solid ground safely.

Langley Flying School Thanks for 21 Great Years!
After selling his shares in Langley Flying School, the Chief Flying Instructor, David Parry, expresses his gratitude and appreciation to all of the Flight Instructors and Students of Langley Flying School during the last 21 years. The video is a collection of photos accumulated over the years. Music:
My family and I sold our shares in Langley Flying School back on October 15th. We founded the school in fall of 1994. I think it important now to express my gratitude to those with whom I have worked at the school, going back to those crazy early days.
I will take the easy way out and use words that I have written and modified over the years for the introduction to the school’s training manuals—words which still come from the heart!
Langley Flying School has been for me a mere collection of dedicated and hardworking individuals who, motivated by the love of flying, have spent many hours contributing to the system of flight training operations that has evolved over the years—Kevin Williams (deceased), Michel Rouch, Sheldon Pohl (now a Boeing 737 Captain with Westjet), Heather Wolf (last reported a Boeing 747 Pilot with EVA Airways), Jarrod Burgess (now corporate jet pilot in Oklahoma), Nick van Empel (now an Air Canada pilot), Ron Reynolds, Corey Dyer (now a Bombardier Q400 Captain with WestJet Encore, Dave Beales (vintage aircraft pilot with Canadian Museum of Flight, Langley), Jessica Hamstra (now an Air Canada pilot), Rita Methorst (who remains the Associate Chief Flying Instructor at Langley Flying School), David Woollam (now a Training Captain with Trans Maldivian Airways), Bob Brown, Dave Page (now a Bearskin Airlines Captain), Tom Larkin (now a Flight Instructor with Winnipeg Aviation), Brandon Dreyer (now a pilot with Pacific Coastal Airlines), Adam O’Sullivan, Patrice Gagnon (now an Air Canada Jazz pilot), Adam Katagiri (desceased), Peter Waddington, Ben Orlowski (now an Air Canada Jazz pilot), Ryan Gahan (now a pilot with Conair Aviation), Cullen Worth (also with Conair Aviation), Philip Craig (WestJet), Justin Chung (WestJet), Rod Giesbretcht (now a Captain with Pacific Coastal Airlines), Naomi Giesbretcht (also a Captain with Pacific Coastal Airlines, and yes, Naiomi and Rod met as Flight Instructor at LFS!) , Hoowan Nam (Assistant Chief Flying Instructor with Montair), Nam Vu (now B1900 pilot for Skylink Express), Mayank Mittal (Chief Flying Instructor with Gander Flight Training), Beda Grunder, Carl Tingstad (now a Captain with Central Mountain Air), Sean Yoo (now B737 pilot for Air Incheon), Jim Nichols (now a pilot for Pacific Coastal Airlines), Barry Stanley, Florian James, Kamy Farrokhpour (now C208 pilot for Skylink Express), Nadine Smith-Breton, Joel Hunt, Mohit Agnihotri, Jojhar Gill, Daniel Gonzalez, and Sheldon Hemingway. Hopefully I haven’t forgotten anyone, but truly a wonderful bunch with whom it was an honour to share a few years of their young professional pilot careers—as they have succeeded in their careers, I have felt a sense of pride far beyond words!
I won’t go on to list the many great students my staff and I have worked with over the years, especially those who have landed their careers in professional flying—they know that I am proud of them! Enjoy their pictures in the video I have posted—all 28 plus minutes!!—and be sure to note their smiles! Behold the magic of flying....
Over the last 20 years or so it has been my pleasure to work with Rita Methorst—first as student, then as a line Flight Instructor, and for the last 10 years or so as the Associate Chief Flying Instructor. Through the successes and set-backs we have experienced over that 20 years, Rita has always consistently contributed sound judgement and decision-making—founded, I believe, on her amazing intuition. Rita has been a wonderful classy lady whose achievements in aviation I have been proud to have witnessed. Of course, she has been, and remains, a wonderful best friend!
I always say that teaching flying is a wonderful profession that is rich in excitement, satisfaction, challenge and success. It truly is an honour to teach people how to fly. The pleasures of the job, however, originate from hearts and minds of students. Student pilots are never forced to come to school, and it is wonderful to work with such a highly motivated bunch. It remains true for me that, when I get into an aeroplane today, I still have the same sense of excitement and anticipation that I had on my first flight lesson at High River Airport on January 15th, 1987.
I’m going to sign-off with the words of Steve Jobs: “Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma—which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.”
Cheers,
Dave
