Default Vancouver floatplane spotting.

If you are ever in Vancouver and have a bit of spare time, just head down to the harbour, take a seat and sit back and watch floatplanes for a while.

Love them Tim. I remember flying from Vancouver to Victoria early last year. Such a beautiful flight.

Default Floatplanes in Canada

Saw most of that when I was there last year.

Spent o couple of good afternoons watching the action on the harbor while dad did the touristy stuff in vancouver.

Went on quite a few flights on floatplanes.

The Whistler Air aircraft would have to be one the best colourschemes I have seen on a floatplane.

I was in Vancouver last week Tim, and was amazed to see how many different floatplanes operated out of the marina. A big and busy operation.
