Good to see the landscape from above. Never been there. Looks like Many Agri. fields mostly grass. Don't know if many raise cattle or not ? Dairy ?

Congrats, perseverence wins the day! Great video, loved the view of the scenery on the way to Salmon Arm. Enjoy the job and Grand Prarie.

My kids live in Kamloops and I live in salmon arm, so it’s pretty cool to watch this video …… thanks for sharing 🙏🏻😉👍🏻🇨🇦

I love Vanderhoof. I lived there in 1982-1983. Love the area, love the people.

i have lived in Salmon Arm my entire life and it was amazing to see it from the air like this

Well done. I'm 62 years old, semi-retired, and prepping for my commercial check ride. My goal is to fly Part 135 here in Alaska after I fully retire. Good to see others with similar goals!

I'm considering moving here to work for atc. Your video is actually great to see the town and type of valley the airport is in.

Love this area, hope to move to Vanderhoof soon!

Sir...will you be coming back to UA-cam eventually?😮

Thanks. You are making good points. However almost nothing of what you are saying specifically applies to mountain flying. In fact a lot of what you are saying applies to any potentially hazardous outdoor activity. - Training - Having a plan - knowing the weather - knowing your personal limits ... The only thing that exclusively applied is density altitude and that even applies without mountains as long as the terrain is high enough. Even my home airfield at 2000ft can be critical in the summer because the grass runway is only 2000ft long. So it's not exactly what I expected from a video about mountain flying. Sorry

so beautiful!! that wells gray park is incredible especially Trophy mountain the lakes and waterfalls

Thanks for the fly over im a logan lake resident

How do you turn the remote cameras on/off? With your smartphone?

Thanks for the video and high authority on weather. I had taught mountain flying in New Mexico and Colorado from 1974 to 2018 when I co-taught a seminar/clinic with Butch Washtock in Grande Prairie, Alberta. I was very lucky that Butch, from Vancouver BC, went first because a lot of the drainage ingress/egress I taught was not nearly as applicable in the BC mountains. My volcanic and fold/fault formed mountain experience with constant knowledge of the down drainage egress possibilities was not as valuable there as Butch's experience and good instruction on flying in glacially formed deep straight sided bath tubs. So I can verify your admonition to get specific instruction in the conditions we will be flying in. Yes, DA is a much more dangerous consideration, midday in summer especially, at Angel Fire or Telluride or crossing the many 10,000 passes in Colorado. Here we may easily find ourselves in conditions where pulling back on the stick will not cause any climb, but rather the opposite. I tell students if pulling back doesn't get us any up, try pushing on the yoke. Neither Vx nor Vy is ever appropriate for a high DA airport takeoff midday in summer. Only the basic level in low ground effect until cruise airspeed and then pitch up only enough to clear obstructions will jealously keep airspeed close to the vest and not trade too much airspeed for altitude. Too much free ground effect energy has been rejected by pitching to Vy after liftoff, energy that might have prevented the resulting mush or stall and fatality. There is too much attempting to climb in downdrafts and too much rejection of free updrafts in the futile attempt to maintain altitude in small airplanes. The wind is our friend down here. Small airplanes are safer near the upwind ridge where we not only have good lift but are well positioned both physically and wind management wise for the canyon turn back in the horizontal space available before smacking the opposing ridge as the valley closes (horizontally but not vertically) as we near the pass. The target in the 1 g turn at whatever bank angle is necessary to turn back is the bottom of the down drainage egress. Yes, 1 g if we allow the airplane to do what it is designed to do in turns...it will drop its nose if we relax back pressure and let it. Two things scared me in BC. I was completely lost, flying with locals, in the maze because down drainage egress was not obvious. And as Butch taught me, orographic lift was not smooth and reliable on the very steep ridges. Where I keep airspeed as high as possible down here (I may be at Vy just to maintain altitude (ceiling) in the 65-150 hp trainers at the point where I must make the decision to continue to cross the pass at 100' AGL or turn back into the down drainage egress. Again, the wind is our friend because it makes the wind energy that we can manage to our benefit most of the time. Ground effect, thermal lift, down drainage egress, and orographic lift are far more than 50% of the total energy available to small airplanes in the U.S. Rockies. Butch teaches slower flight, even with some flaps, and feeling out the air drainage where deep canyons meet other deep canyons in the maze. Much different than my usually guaranteed orographic lift. Thanks again for a great video. Come south and fly with us sometime.

HOPE ALL IS WELL IN YOUR NEW VENTURE LOOK FORWARD WHEN YOU GET TIME FOR MORE VIDEOS CHEERS AND GOD SPEED!!!!

Not even with a $1.8bn Iran Deal. I'm just a nerdy scientist. We stay home and work on alternative energy technology.

Thanks for the flight!

"Well, that's the idea, to get on the ground." I guess so, right? hahahaha

Very smooth landing!

Climbs nice. I saw Speedstacks, but the old B3TN's. Did you have the -135A engines?

When are you moving from the LOOP ?😮❤

Happy New Year!

Did a double take when I heard your ident. Had to play it back a couple of times. You are Zulu Victor Delta and my aircraft is Delta Zulu Victor. Great vid. I've flown that route a couple of times . Spectacular scenery.

Thanks for the views of Beautiful British Columbia!

Was interested where you went for lunch to make the flight worth it?

I really enjoy your flight videos and i hope with the new job you will still post adventures from the right seat (or left). I live in Salmon Arm so I know a lots of the same country that you fly over, done it myself many years ago before the Parkinson's.

I just saw you sold her. Gonna miss these videos

This is why we installed steps. Anything more than 30deg of flap only adds drag, not lift.

Great Video, best of luck with your new career, that's very exciting.

Nice work Dale, well deserved!

I see you are migrating over to DJI too, it's nice having a camera that doesn't crash all the time, Beautiful Videos

How many ft were you at over the mountains?

Congrats. Love the King Air.

You flew right over my folk's old place in Blind Bay. [sigh]

Nice to see Surrey there live close to there and I like that our bike infra is getting a lot better and super excited about the train to Langley will make things even better.

Grand Prairie, friendly people! Enjoyed your video, thank you.

Congratulations! I hope you enjoy this new adventure!

Just had your channel pop up as recommended to me and I love it! I live in the Okanagan but travel lots on the ground throughout BC, so it is nice to see it more from the air. You have such a warming personality and I feel like you have such amazing stories to tell from just listening to you talk on this one video. Congrats on the new job! Can't wait to catch up on other videos you have posted. Thanks for posting the location info as well when we fly over it.

New adventures, living the dream! Say hi to Reissa for me.

impressive changes planned for this stage of life. Good on you.

Awesome!! Enjoy!!

And that's how you do it. Congrats Dale!

Grand Prairie, eh? We’ll that’s a surprise! Nice airport. I picked up my RV-4 there nearly 19 years ago. Congratulations Dale. Hope to see you before you relocate!

Congratulations! How many hours do you have?

Congrats Dale. Looking forward to your future videos!

Congrats Dale. Looking forward to your future videos!

Congrats Dale. Just goes to show that if you want something bad enough, and you work for it, you can achieve anything!!!! Very excited for your new adventure.

Congratulations! In todays job market it's awesome to hear reassuring words and support of persistence. Looking forward to future videos!

Nice work dude!

Congrats on the new career , will there be any flying videos from AB ?
