I think Helisource still does. I last did Seismic in 2018 and haven’t even heard of any hint of any since except second hand stories. With the market and the advances in ‘ seistech’ Helicopters demand has gone down. For sure for the intermediates. To be honest, I sure miss that work. Had many good years in Northern BC, Alberta and down in the US. Those were the days.

Yellowhead in Valemount or Clearwater.

Did Ultra have their hangar just East of Grimshaw? There was another small operator in Manning or thereabouts. The name Atech rings a bell. Also, was there a company called Nationwide around there? It’s strange how things come back to you years later. There was also Venture in Calgary.

I’m an engineer, so I haven’t worked for him directly. I do know that he was quite civil to deal with and more than a few rocks were turned over by him looking for work. In addition to that, I always remember him going to bat for those under him. Overall, my dealings with him were amicable.

Eslin, Edgeworth, Hayes, Peregrine and I’m not sure if Ultra still around. I've worked with CT a few times and I found him to be a fairly decent dude. The CT who was previously at GSH.

Worked with Neil back in the day at NMH. He was a pretty decent guy.

Did anyone ever track Paul down?

Worked with Mike at VIH and at NMH. He was a good sheet metal guy and a good guy to work around. So sorry to hear about him. I'll miss working with him and my condolences to his family.

Someone was saying VIH might be holding one. Give them a call, see what's happening.

I think www.aviationcoursesltd.com might be what you're looking for.

As far as I know, he has pulled a Hank.

I worked with the pilot this winter. A good guy and a good pilot. I couldn't help but remember him talking to his kids on the truck phone. Kinda hard to deal with right now. I send condolences to his and the passengers families. Goodbye my friend.

I used to work on a Twinstar with C20R's. The No. 2 (LH) engine used to stall on startup all the time. Everyone said it was normal due to the airframe configuration. I took their word for it and never did bother to troubleshoot. I guess I should have in hindsight.

Sorry to hear. I worked with Doug at VIH. He was a good guy to go on tour with and he was pretty knowledgeable. I learned a fair bit from him. Later, friend.

Sorry, haven't heard that one yet. I work for VIHH and there always are rumours going around. Rumours about this company, other companies and rumours in general. So, can't help you there man.
