Posted: 11 Aug 2020, 20:15
Shalom and greetings all my pals,
Presenting special anniversary flight abroad DC-3 from CYOW Ottawa/Macdonald–Cartier International Airport located 5.5 nautical miles south of downtown Ottawa to CYTZ located on the Toronto Islands south-west of downtown Toronto for purpose of celebrating 80th anniversary of 1940 to 1943 use of CYTZ as Norwegian air force training base where it was known as little Norway or little Norge.
On airborne on climb to 10,000 ft after take off from CYOW runway 25
Now cruising at 10,000 ft with background view of beginning of Ottawa River
Cruising behind moon where retired WW2 Norwegian soldiers are enjoying the anniversary flight
Cruising across winter landscape
Dig well polished metallic shine
Dont you like dirt grime on engine cover?
Wing view of sun in front meaning we have sun and moon at same time in same flight!
look at dirt behind engine
Checking to be sure that both engines are working fine
look at dirt details under the engines
Cruising through clouds at 10,000 ft can be pure fun and exciting
Cruising past city of Belleville where you can see bridge route number 62 connecting between Belleville and Rossmore over waters of Bay of Quinte
Cruising past CYTR Canadian Forces Base Trenton located within the city of Quinte West, Ontario that is used by C-130 Hercules
Passing city of Trenton that is home of National Air Force Museum of Canada where you can see two bridges over waters of Trent River especially the bridge in front of left propeller is called Dixon Drive or old Route 2 bridge and the bridge near wing tip of left wing is called Dundas Street East or new Route 2 bridge. If you have sharp eyes, you can see pleasure boat wharf in Centennial Park
Approaching famous lake Ontario to get ready for descent on way to CYTZ runway 26
Word of advice when you get ready for final approach to runway 26 is to watch out for tall chimneys of The Hearn power stations
You can see in front of the plane Don River in West Dons lands suburb of Toronto where you can see Gardiner Expressway on bottom going through 2 bridges crossing the river to upward to form another highway called Don Valley Parkway
Cockpit view of city landscape of Toronto and its famous buildings
look out for high chimneys of the Hearn power plants on way to CYTZ runway 26
Positioning into correct path for final approach to runway after swerving left to avoid the chimneys
Check out famous buildings of Toronto
Check out Rogers Center stadium which is home of Toronto Blue Jays
Dig entire view of city landscape of Toronto that would make a perfect postcard for all of you
Seconds before touchdown
TOUCHDOWN
Braking down in effort to bring down the tail wheel very slowly with background view of termina
Tail wheel still gliding slowly to make runway contact while making call to this ESSO gas station for more fuel
Few seconds for rear wheel to make touchdown
Finally the rear wheel is on ground
Exiting from runway 26 into taxiway A on way to gate
Taxiing on taxiway A
Taxiing past firehouse
Taxiing past ESSO gas station
Taxiing past the terminal full of planes
Approaching gate 9
Arrived at gate 9
Dropping off passengers where they will catch tour boat behind the Dash 7 for lunch tour and 80th anniversary ceremony
Thank you for viewing. Stay tuned for next exciting flight
Regards,
Aharon
