- This week I'm in the beautiful city of Kelowna in Canada, where I took a flight with Braden from Air Hart to learn to fly a seaplane. Honestly this was one of the most incredible flights I've ever done, and left me with a whole new appreciation of the simpler side of aviation!

A couple of years ago, we did a road trip from Calgary to the west coast of Canada, going through the Rockies. We spent a couple of days in Kelowna which is, I agree, a beautiful place; I wanted to do a floatplane trip but we didn't have the time unfortunately. One of the things that amazed me was the climate - there are vineyards and soft fruit farms by the mile but you're still only an hour or so from skiing in the mountains. We also went to Victoria, on Vancouver Island, which is reputed to have the busiest seaplane port in the world, complete with its own airport style control tower. Amazing....
Just got my float plane rating last month. Most fun I’ve had flying. Great video!
I loved this flic. Braeden exemplified the best of Canada. Well done young man.
the scenery, the colours, the flying ❤️ .... this video could have gone on forever. Thank for sharing x
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you :)
Very nice video! 👌 Can't wait to hear there in summer too
That looked like so much fun, Canada looks a beautiful country. Well done Noel.
I know that part of the world having on holiday there twice, I am so envious! Glad you had a great time. Canadians are always so welcoming.
Awesome!
WOW fantastic Noel my biggest Dream to fly this 👍👍👍
Did my float rating in yvb 🤙🏻. Loved it
Awesome scenery and a great video Noel. As you say “So cool!” 😎
As Jeremy Clarkson would say, “A bit of poo has come out”, would be MY feeling going through those mountains like that.
Stunning landscapes though and a great video.
Amazing video in an amazing part of the world. I've had the pleasure of a couple of float plane trips in Alaska flying on DH Beaver and Otter. That guy has the best job in the world.
Cool Video.. Had a chance to do the same thing on the west coast of Vancouver Island this summer. This is what aviation is all about for us Canadian pilots. Love the sweet smell of Avgas!
Another cracking video, Noel 👍
Beautiful scenery.
Great vid!
Oh My Days Noel, you are flying toward the Canyon, turn hard left....NO...fly into the Canyon.....YIKES and that 2nd one was even scarier! Nice take offs and landings, what a great experience!
Awesome mate. That’s where my cousin learnt to fly and then went on to become a Captain for Air Canada. Great vlog and views. 👍🏼
Once again an amazing Vlog. Your excitement is contagious. 💖
That is so cool Noel what’s better land plane or sea plane
that was an awesome video plus beautiful views
One for your logbook Noel, great vlog.
In your last travel vid you landed in TORONTO and then suddenly you teleported to Vancouver/BC here?
what a amazing video
Canada is huge country with lots of lake to land on for sure eh. Cool vid
Great video Noel. Keep em coming... :o)
I'm waiting for the news report of Noel buzzing through the Mach Loop in his clubs Arrow. Lol
Awesome video
Epic video! Loved it
you were in my hood! That's the place I want to do my float training at
👍👍
Cool Noel my dream is to fly one day great vid thx have a great day
U should do a meet up if u are in or around Vancouver
Looks brilliant Noel, always been fascinated by seaplanes as one flies over my house every day, keep up the great videos!
Noel you look a bit like the actor from the movie “Sightseers”
Can this land on a actaul runway like a real airplane noel phillips
Float Flying is great, you really need to fly something that isn't such a dog on floats! The 172 on floats is such a poor performer, the 185 is a solid floatplane, but if you get a chance to fly a 150HP Supercub on floats, you'll never want to fly a 172 on floats again!
Good to learn on though - a performer like a supercub will just haul itself up out of the water despite poor technique. Takeoff sure does happen slowly on that 172 though!

Rakice tq ok
I suppose that was also a jet! 😂
I could always rename it and let the pedantics come and comment to boost the views, seems to work well 😂😂
