Edward Gee is Product Support Manager for Viking Air in British Columbia.  Viking Air has assumed responsibility for seven of the eight original de Havilland type certificates.  Hear about how they went from a service provider to aircraft manufacturer and hear about the future of de Havilland, now Viking’s, aircraft.

Chris explores the history of aviation in Canadian forests.  Not surprisingly, given the vast amount of hinterland possessed by Canada, a lot of aviation firsts took place because of bush flying.  Hear about some special aircraft and some of the people behind bush flying during this installment of the History of Canadian Aviation.
