cap Posted March 19, 2005 Report Posted March 19, 2005 T-rex ----- not in the late 70's-early 80's she didn't. She knows the Sukunka Valley, Pine Pass, Grizzly Valley, Williston Lake and every foot of Hydro line between the Bennet Dam and PG extremely well though.......not including many of the trees in those areas on a first-name basis. She definitely had a fat little Hummingbird on both sides then also. Quote
skullcap Posted March 19, 2005 Report Posted March 19, 2005 T-rex; Ft Nelson from mid 80s till early 90's then not sure, maybe went to Dawson Creek till they closed it down? sc Quote
407 Driver Posted March 19, 2005 Report Posted March 19, 2005 YES, good old HTR, a Ft Nelson A/C on my 1996 list. Skully, HTM was in Dawson Ck (HTM= half-tank-Mike ). That whole HT_ series were all great aircraft. CAP, my personal favorite...HTS was in Chetwynd as per the 1996 list. When did you leave there? My last tour in the swamps was in early 1981. When I moved down south, I flew ex-Bow airplanes, BHI, BHE, etc. Quote

skullcap Posted March 19, 2005 Report Posted March 19, 2005 Where did the "HT_" come from? I flew HTR from ft nelson to a fire north of Ft St James and was "full" of snags, Ray from PG never saw a swashplate so worn out...wasn't quite the creampuff then but,,a little tlc and she was as fine as old slippers. sc Quote
Buster Burns Posted March 19, 2005 Report Posted March 19, 2005 Hey everybody. FHTR was a Ft Nelson base machine until late May 2004 when the second stage compressor blade departed the wheel and destroyed the rest of the compressor. The pilot, between a cigarette and a coffee, landed without damage in a cut line big enough for a R22 between YoYO and Kotcho lake. The aircraft was sold shortly after. I have this info because the pilot is sitting in his tighty whiteys across from me stuffing his face with pork rinds. Quote

Buster Burns Posted March 19, 2005 Report Posted March 19, 2005 apparetly the machine in question was sold to a company out of kelowna after the stove quit in ft. nelly.... Quote
407 Driver Posted March 19, 2005 Report Posted March 19, 2005 Skull, Okanagan bought a bunch of new 206B's in 1973. No idea why they chose "HT_", other than there were a couple Hiller 12E's with HT_ registrations already... The HT_'s, (all 206B's in the 1,000 to 1,100 s/n range) I found on a quick search are....HTC, HTF, HTM, HTN, HTO, HTP, HTQ, HTR, HTS, HTT, HTU, HTV, HTX. Quote
