The Skies Come Alive: 3 De Havilland Beavers & An Otter at Vancouver Harbour Flight Centre
Experience the serene beauty of a golden morning at Vancouver Harbour Flight Centre, where the skies come alive with the majestic dance of seaplanes. In this captivating footage from March 9th, you'll witness a Harbour Air De Havilland Otter and a Beaver take off together, followed by the graceful landings of two more Beavers. The highlight of the video features my favorite Beaver, C-FFHA, making an unforgettable landing and taxiing to the dock. Cherish these moments as some of the last recorded of C-FFHA before its unfortunate accident in June. Immerse yourself in the magic of this golden hour tribute to these incredible aircraft!

It still sometimes happens fast and I have to turn quickly, I do mess up sometimes and it makes me feel queasy too. I’m getting better at chopping the fast pan and replace it with a transition to the same scene, if that makes sense. Thanks for visiting the lounge, the front row seat is reserved for you.

    I am intrigued by the Turbo-Otter. I presume they were retrofitted, replacing the original radial engine. Due to the difference in vibration characteristics I wonder if fatigue problems occured,additionally the engine position & weight giving rise to trim problems. My reason for this is that in South Africa when the SAAF retired the Shackleton MR3’s they had,they retrofitted some Douglas C47’s with turboprops & had serious fatigue problems with the engine mountings & the aircraft trim having to undertake fuselage modifications for the latter. I learned this from a SAAF member who was involved. Unrelated to the above I have two friends who were connected to Shackletons,one who worked on the Rolls- Royce Griffon engines whist in the SAAF & another who flew them in the RAF. I hope the above is of some interest to you. I find your videos intriguing.

      A turbine being smoother than a radial it should ease vibration problems. Or at least you'd have thought so. I don't know about trim problems but I do know that the lengthened nose was to keep the centre of gravity in the same place due to the turbine engine being a lot lighter.

Does Victoria ever shoot them off from the park on the Straits anymore? One of the most memorable years was into heavy fog over Juan de Fuca. Do you have any videos of the Butchart fireworks? Really enjoyed your Christmas lighting from there- how great you grew up in Victoria! Thanks!
