It would be fun to fly under the Lions Gate Bridge and not have to worry about extra paperwork! From the article:"While floatplane pilots will train in simulated, high-resolution reproductions of Victoria and Vancouver harbours, and on nearby Cowichan Lake where glassy water landings can be practiced, Coughlin said that pilots will still need actual time in a float-equipped Twin Otter." Thank heavens.

Kip - if you had the patience to watch that second video then congratulations, you more tolerant than I. (I could only take about one minute of his s-l-o-w droning voice.) As to the point of this post - that SCORKL thing will never replace real SCUBA gear; and if somebody tries to use it on dives then deaths will surely follow. However I can see a use for it - as an aid when snorkeling. Last time I was in Australia and snorkeling over the Great Barrier Reef with my trusty underwater camera there were several missed shots when I ran out of time and breath. If I could have held my breath for another 75 seconds the photos would have been perfect. So, I can see a use for a SCORKL if used for snorkeling. Quick question: how long have you two been diving? I was PADI certified in the 1960's.

Kip - not to pass judgement on this (or any) any crew but knowing and remembering are two different things.

"a bonfire of the schedules" Best way to describe the mess I've ever read. Hey Kip - it is a good time to be retired, no?

Just spent some time looking at the 12 Flights individual videos. Well done WestJetters.

That was a good snippet of flying in the 60's. I noticed that some things have not changed 50 years later: seat belt buckles and the way crews are treated on turns.
