Quarantine Freedom Flight CYMM to CYEG
Channel: Father Dane
Date: 2021-08-07

Bob Roberts wrote to say he would love to see a flight from Fort McMurray Alberta (CYMM) to Edmonton International (CYEG).  The reason for the request is that he wants to get a real good look at our flight planning. Well, we do that in this video and there's a lot more information about the reasons for the choices we make. As an added bonus, we encounter total IFR conditions at our destination but our fearless pilot chooses to land anyway in thick fog! The video is 1 bag of popcorn plus 36 minutes long; 1080p HD and is free to download and use with no attribution necessary.  Enjoy!
