  • In June last year, I visited beautiful Whitehorse, Yukon, and although I’ve already posted a couple videos from that trip, I wanted to share another unique thing I did while I was there.
    As an Alberta resident, I’ve never actually been on a floatplane, and with only a few days to spend in Whitehorse, I figured this would be the best way to see as much as I can!
    Enjoy this look at flying in a floatplane around this gorgeous part of Canada!

      Alex Praglowski Aviation and as usual you speak in kilometers and don’t give miles... but it seems as though if those of us who live in the us are expected to give a conversion..

      I'm convinced by now you're just trying to see what the smallest aircraft you can fit yourself into is!

    Yukon is hands down one of the most beautiful provinces in Canada... It’s like a mixture of northern Quebec and British Columbia. Love it!

    • @joncalon7508

      It's not a province, but a territory. Slight difference in the two...

    As a 20 (I'm a 73 yrs now) something yr old female, I hitchiked by lite planes from Edmonton, AB, to Whitehorse YT (with my small dog & her 4 pups). I spent 8 yrs up there, & loved every minute of it! I was lucky to have a verrry accomplished helicopter pilot as a boyfriend, & we went out often, exploring everywhere...old trappers & gold panners cabins,etc. We'd see herds of every kind of wild animal a person cud imagine. Watching this vid, brings back verrry fond memories, of what I consider to be 'the most beautiful place in Canada' - & I've seen them all!!

    You my friend are living the life! The BC and lower Yukon bush is the best place in the world for bush flying.

    In some ways floatplanes are a under appreciated part of aviation.

    I’ve flown on that same plane when I was younger back in 2016. My first plane ride was a 737. Two days later I got to go on that same tour you did and the pilot even let me take controls for a while. I highly recommended taking the float plane tour!

    All parts of Canada are astonishing. Some are more astonishing than others.
    I've been to Whitehorse and Dawson on Air North. Some day I'll fly my own plane there.

    You should try floatplane trips on BC Coast; even if only Between Campbell River Vancouver; or Nanaimo; or Victoria etc. :)

    Very enjoyable Alex. We had to go down to Seattle to get a sea plane. The wife & I managed a Seaplane ride few years back. Was the Smoothest take off & landing we ever had. How was your take off landing experience?

    Hey Alex, how much does this tour cost? I found Alpine Aviation's website, but doesn't have any quote on there either

    This video reminded my of a trip I made to the Yukon in the late 1980s. I flew to Whitehorse, met up with a friend, and we drove up the Dempster Highway as far as we could in mid-June. Beautiful country.

  • @PeterNGloor
    @PeterNGloor 4 года назад

    nice video but I hate it to see shots with the propeller getting distorted and not turning properly. It depends on the camera though.

    • @rickhiebert7352
      @rickhiebert7352 4 года назад

      Yes nice video. Regarding that prop distortion...it's known as a "rolling shutter" and can be fixed by using a "prop filter" which basically slows down the cameras shutter speed and gives the prop a more normal look. When we fly, we often use 4 GoPros, 2 of which are equipped with prop filters. Easy to notice the difference. Need to buy some more.
