C-FFHH @ CYKZ - This little Cessna holds a dear place in my heart because I trained in it for my PPL back in 1985 with Toronto Airways here at its home base. It spent most of its life training pilots until moving to London, Ontario in 2012. Note the pilot's heights.

C-GODZ @ CYKZ - The friendly pilot in this sharp looking Commander just started its engine beside his hangar. It would soon be flying away through some choppy wind.

C-GTTV @ CYKZ - This fast machine was turning into position for takeoff on runway 33. It lives here & is always so cool to see.

C-GYZL @ CTA5 - Strong winds made this Skywagon sound like it wanted to break free from its dock on Lac Lemoine at the Hydrobase Piche Dubuisson Seaplane near Val-d'Or, Quebec. I liked its see-through doors & the Viking emblem on its tail.
C-GYZL @ CTA5
C-FEZN @ CPB9 - This Skywagon was ready for takeoff on turf rwy 01 with 2 skydivers onboard. It's based here at Baldwin Airport & would soon climb to 13,500 ft so the 2 guys could jump out.
C-FEZN @ CPB9
CF-FXP - This fire red Cessna looked great while resting at its home dock on Lake Scugog near Port Perry, Ontario. It must be loud when taking off among the small fishing boats.
CF-FXP
C-GZVB @ CNV6 - This floatplane sure has nice colourful paint. It was visiting here at the Lake St. John Seaplane base from a private strip in southern Ontario. Now it lives to the east in Quebec.
C-GZVB @ CNV6
C-GIXP @ CNQ3 - This cool homebuilt just arrived from Parry Sound Airport up north. Its friendly pilot soon put it away for the night in its hangar. This airplane lives here at Welland's Niagara Central Airport & must be so much fun to fly.
C-GIXP @ CNQ3
C-FEXD @ CYKZ - This Falcon 10 was starting to takeoff on rwy 33 & sure made some beautiful noise too. It is based at London, Ontario to the west where it flies for Flightexec.
C-FEXD @ CYKZ
C-GRYG @ CNQ7 - This yellow Beaver was flying off the Lower Pickerel River with passengers on a scenic flight. It is based here at the Port Loring Water Aerodrome (CNQ7) in the beautiful Canadian wilderness about 140 nm North of Toronto.
C-GRYG @ CNQ7
C-GGXX @ CNV6 - I always notice this Beaver first when I visit this airport because of its wonderful paint scheme. It lives here at Orillia's Lake St. John Seaplane base & I'd love to see it flying some day.
C-GGXX @ CNV6
C-FCRH @ CYLS - This Falcon 50 looked great in blue colours while resting on the terminal ramp at Lake Simcoe Regional. It was visiting from Calgary, Alberta. Its reg was once on a Hawker 800 bizjet.
