I flew in the high Canadian arctic for several years before getting a corporate job with Alcan Aluminum out of Montreal, flying a DH125 business jet. Loved flying in the arctic and I loved flying corporate. Then I was hired by Air Canada. Air Canada introduced me to discipline. I became a serious, safe, disciplined pilot at Air Canada and flew with them for years. Eventually I moved to the United States, became a U.S. citizen and was recruited to fly for the New York Air National Guard part time. This introduced me to a new kind of discipline; where flying was secondary to the actual mission of air superiority and killing the enemy. Ideally, arctic and bush pilots would be more disciplined. Good corporate pilots often come from the military, not from the bush or the arctic as I did. Good corporate pilots are disciplined, but I witnessed many who were very undisciplined while I was with Alcan. Ughhh. Sorry to say, but true.
@@RenegadeAV8R Great channel and I love that shiny Gulfstream. When I was 15 I stood at the edge of a runway while a G2 was taking off and was amazed at the power and noise. Wanted to fly after that.
I watched as long as I could, but he was just prattling on. Is there a point, a specific reason we should stay tuned? Please tell us up front. You lost me on the third round trip in 90 seconds about Corp flying is better. OK, that should be your title and thumbnail... Not 'did dave go to far', or does a Dave turn up in about 10 minutes

Great comments! Appreciated! A lot of what I try to get across is mixed with tongue and cheek. Thanks, fellow AV8R!

Hey! You know what? I appreciate the comment ! Keep them coming. I don’t proclaim great social media prowess. Maybe you can help. Lol!
Oh…..but corporate aviation IS more dangerous than the scheduled airlines. You MUST know that.
