DGP Posted March 4, 2022 Report Share Posted March 4, 2022 Been a very long time since I last saw Jimmy....would have been in Edmonton in 1983 maybe...I had to fly a 206 from Norman Wells to Edmonton...met him in a hangar at the Industrial airport...last time before that was on the fire in Dryden 1974...Jim was flying a 205 that needed a new trany...I flew down to Dryden in a 337 suck and blow with my head jammed next to this trany and helped change it.

carholme Posted March 5, 2022 Report Share Posted March 5, 2022 Doug; I was going to send you a message that you are getting old but I see that you remembered Jim Lewis. If I am not mistaken, he came to Klondike from Alpine when all they had was the little Bell 47 operation in Calgaary. I worked with Jim Lewis on KHQ and he was a tremendous person and pilot. Take care Doug. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carholme Posted March 5, 2022 Report Share Posted March 5, 2022 Doug; That was KHP I think and yes Terry was flying. Still miss him so much after all these years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
