Thank-you for sharing the video, Brandon. The name is Guerry, and I was prompted to visit, then subscribe to your channel due to the incredible gracious gift to Alex for his trip to Victoria. I thought that was an exceptionally nice gesture. I really enjoyed your video. I thought you did a great job with both your videography and editing. I will have to acquaint myself with the 3 letter airport designations, but given the relatively few flights to Victoria, that should not be much of a problem. Actually, the 3 letter codes are really not that big of a deal to me and are just a part of your signature. I am one who not only enjoys plane-spotting the wide bodies, but watching the turboprops reminds me of when they were the most popular short to midrange transports that remained popular, even after the advent of the DC-9 and 737. In fact, the large prop driven aircraft were still in service when I fell in love with commercial aircraft. Among my first airline flights was on a Lake Central DC-3. When I was much older, I caught many connecting flights to my hometown on the Allegheny Commuter King Air 99 (the granddad of the Beechcraft 1900) between Chicago O’Hare and Danville, IL. The interior looked very similar, except that the cabin had about 1 foot less headroom, which made crossing that wing spar across the aisle a real pain for a tall guy like me. So, watching the propjet traffic into and out of Victoria reminds me of the days when I flew frequently. Your videos are very relaxing for me to view. In Alex’s narrative, he mentioned that you worked for Pacific Coastal Airlines. Consequently, you might be able to answer a question to something I noticed in your video, since I cannot find any references to it in my search results. Some of the propeller spinners on the Q400’s have this white ring that looks like the paint has been worn away just behind the tip. Could you please find out from someone why it is there? I would appreciate it if you were able. Thank-you again for the video. Please keep up the great work.
Thank you very much for the wonderful comment. To clarify, I do not work for Pacific Coastal, but I did provide him with his accommodations during his stay, and show him around our beautiful city! To answer your question, I do not know about the Q400 props. It could very well just be wear on the tip of the propeller from flying through weather and overtime general wear. Thank you! Brandon
