This year’s meeting was well-attended, with more than enough members to provide a quorum. The meeting included lively discussion, and excitement about the future of the Victoria Flying Club. The highlight of the AGM each year is the election of a new board of directors. We are happy to welcome back the following board members for another year: Don Devenney, Ramona Reynolds, Colin Williamson, Wayne Clifton, Dave Gagliardi, and Steve Demy. We also want to extend a warm welcome to new directors Howard Peng, and Firat Ataman.

Flight Training
The CFI’s CORNER By: Graham Palmer, CFI
Wind, Waves, Watercraft To many landlocked pilots this might seem like somewhat of a strange pre-takeoff checklist item; however for all of VFC’s recently rated seaplane pilots, this is a concept all too familiar to them. Over the years I have had the opportunity to fly with pilots from across Canada, and around the world. They are always quick to comment that Southern Vancouver Island and the surrounding area is one of the most breathtaking areas they have flown in. The combination of the Pacific Ocean, rugged coastlines, and surrounding mountain system contribute to this stunning aviator’s paradise. I’m fortunate to have had so many incredible flying experiences in and around this area; but honestly the best way by far to fly in this area is in a seaplane.
Whether you are interested in learning to fly a seaplane solely for the enjoyment of the challenge or if you aspire for a career flying a seaplane, completing a seaplane rating is by far the most enjoyable rating a pilot can obtain. Combining your love of flying with the lure of the ocean and lakes is truly the ultimate flying experience. Aside from the pure enjoyment of learning to fly a seaplane, the skill, knowledge and awareness you develop during training is astounding. Enhanced awareness of each and every element from basic airmanship to advanced maneuvering and aircraft handling sharpen your fundamental abilities. Learning to survey a site in preparation for takeoff and landing, evaluate tides and current, wind and waves, how to safely navigate a busy harbor and learning the fine art of docking is very rewarding. Constantly scanning for logs and floating debris, and maintaining vigilance for submerged rocks and overhead power lines as well as other potential hazards make flying a seaplane both challenging and exciting. With a minimum licencing requirement of only 7 hours, obtaining a seaplane rating is not nearly as difficult, nor as
expensive as you may think. The course consists of basic and advanced maneuvers, including concentrated practice of take-offs and landings, docking, beaching and sailing. Aside from the challenge of completing the rating, enjoying our local aerial and aquatic scenery with glimpses of local wildlife both above and below sea level make this a rating worth pursuing. You are guaranteed not to be disappointed! For pilots interested in learning more about what seaplane flying has to offer, or to experience their first lesson flying a seaplane, the Victoria Flying Club will be hosting ‘Seaplane Day’ on Sunday April 27th at CAP5, the Victoria Seaplane base from 10:00 – 16:00. Come down and say ‘Hi’, visit the seaplane base for the first time, or take a Seaplane Discovery Flight ($130 + tax). BBQ burgers and hotdogs will be served hot off the grill from 11:00 – 14:00. For advanced Discovery Flight bookings, or for more information on this event, please feel free to call the club or email: graham.palmer@flyvfc.com We look forward to seeing you there!
VFC SMILE CARDS Pick up your smile card today at the VFC office, and 5% of your grocery purchase will go towards creating scholarships and awards for VFC members. Thank-you Thrifty Foods! To date, the Victoria Flying Club has received over $14,000 from

Once You’ve Gone YAK…
By: Ramona Reynolds
“Have you ever used a parachute?”
I quickly realized this was a real question and not just fun conversation when my off-the-cuff answer didn’t go over big. The real answer was “no”. “Okay, in case of a catastrophic event...”, and that’s when I decided to shut up and listen. I was, after all, about to knock something off my Bucket List. I should probably pay attention to the man flying the plane. The pilot in command and professional pilot, David Gagliardi, is all business even on the fun flights safety is his number one priority. First came the life vest, then the parachute. “Pull on the D-ring and your parachute will deploy. Try to land on your feet with your legs slightly bent. You’ll probably get injured but it beats the alternative.” “Headset off, canopy back, right hand on D-ring, left hand unlatches the seat belt. Once clear of the airplane deploy the parachute. Keep your right hand on the D-ring. The truth is that with the canopy open, once you unlatch that seat belt you’ll get sucked right out of the plane so you don’t want to be flailing around looking for the D-ring.” But only in the case of catastrophic event. Head set, canopy, D-ring, seat belt. Head set, canopy, D-ring, seat belt. When do I do my life April 2014
Let’s be clear - it’s a Nanchang, not a YAK. CJ-6As were built in the late 1950’s and 60’s for the Chinese People’s Liberation Army Air Force
vest? I guess when I hit the water. No. Maybe before I hit the water would be a better idea. Got it. I can barely practice stalls and spins in a little Cessna without a sore jaw from clenching my back teeth - I should have been scared right? The truth is that even though I think David’s entire safety briefing will be forever tattooed on my brain, the second that propeller started to turn I was completely comfortable. That day that seat had my name on it. I was the happiest girl in town. It’s an interesting experience to have total trust in the person you’re flying with. Even more interesting is when the guy you’re flying with is in another airplane at about your two o’clock, or eleven o’clock, or right above or below you. When I woke up that morning, my only real plan for the day was to have lunch at the flying club. I didn’t expect to be the beneficiary of a spontaneous “YAK Flight” with “the Nanchang 7
Guys” and never in a million years did I dream that I was about to be introduced to the fine art and incredible discipline of formation flying. The “Nanchang Guys” are sort of the rocks stars of the Victoria Flying Club. They don’t know it and would never admit it. Everyone loves to watch those guys fly. The reason I was lucky enough to have that opportunity that day was because one of the club members had asked to chat with them about and article she wanted to write. She was feeling a little bit shy about asking them for some time but because I don’t have a shy bone in my body, I brazenly asked on her behalf. A while later when David Gagliardi and Mike Sudul announced that they had received clearance from their respective ATC’s and we were on for a flight that afternoon I was completely stunned and Marie Woodruff was flabbergasted!
www.flyvfc.com
Feature Article I received another surprise at the pre-flight brief. I learned that for some of the flight we would be flying the fighting wing formation so that I would have the opportunity to fly. I am sure I just smiled and nodded. I might have raised a brow, but inside my entire body went: “WHHHAAAAATT?!” You know that dance the football guys do when they score a touchdown. That’s what I was doing in my mind. What I learned was that fighting wing is a good way to help the wing man (woman) gain experience in formation flying. The wing man stays within 30 to 60 degrees of the lead and mirrors the lead.
Fighting Wing Formation
Formation flying takes a great deal of concentration and practice. Because I was a newbie, I had been so focused on flying the airplane that I forgot about flight integrity. That is, maintaining proper relative position to the lead. Lucky for me I was reminded when David said: “Turn to your left. No, your other left. You’ve got to keep your eye on the lead at all times.” It’s funny how I instinctively wanted to stay clear of the other plane. After we transferred control of the plane back to David, and he was satisfied that the transfer Aviation Excellence Since 1946
Coolest. Pilot. Ever.
was complete by seeing my hands in the air in his mirror, David and Mike had some fun. And I kept my eye on them. They were teaching me that in formation flying cockpit visibility is key. They communicate with hand signals, head nods and wing waggles. They flew in parade formation which is a tight formation as if the wings are welded together and the two airplanes fly as one. It felt as close as sitting in traffic and looking at the car next to you. I really could see the smile on Mike’s face. Marie was beaming!
People keep asking me what my favorite part was. I would say that it was the Sierra Hotel break before landing but the truth is that it was all my favorite part! My happiness could not be contained. Before the debrief I received another surprise, because David is a Class Superstar Flight Instructor I got to log the time! Yeah Baby!
As I watched the way these men fly I was absolutely filled with respect. It’s not just because these men were trained by former Snowbird pilots either. Maybe it’s their level of experi ence or their confidence, but you can see “it” in them. Excellence. Man, these guys are Pilots with a capital “P”! And anyone who is a pilot knows what I am talking about.
So here’s to David and Leah, Mike, Ron, Chris, Jim and Brad - the “Nanchang Guys”! If I have missed one of that gang of dogooders then it’s because either I am really dense or I haven’t met them yet, but I hope to meet them soon. I hope there’s room for one more - I’ve got me a new dream!

I was so stoked that after my flight I declared to anyone who would listen in Starbucks that I was going to make a movie! And I did.

Mystery Aircraft
APRIL MYSTERY AIRCRAFT Can you identify the aircraft shown here? Email: thepatrician@shaw.ca
March Mystery Identified
Considering that many of the Soviet Union’s designs bear a suspicious resemblance to their US counterparts, it’s not surprising that Antonov released a jet powered, high-wing STOL aircraft with engines mounted above and forward on the wing. It’s nice to see some valid, working designs not get left on the ground in the desert.
From Tim: This month it’s the Antonov AN-74 patrol/ freighter designed to operate in extreme climates and from rough airstrips. Buffalo replacement? This month’s mystery was correctly identified by: Brad Crock, and Emil Edwards who shared the following story: The first time I saw an aircraft of this type, it was during a tour of the Pima Air and Space Museum in Tuscon, AZ. The YC-14 was Boeing’s very memorable STOL candidate to replace the aging C-130 airframe type. Unfortunately for the YC-14, the C-130 remained the aircraft of choice, and the only time you’d see the YC-14’s remains is either on the grounds of the museum or AMARC’s “Boneyard” located a short drive away. It was such an interesting - albeit unconventional (some might say ugly) - design that I had looked to see if anything else existed. Aviation Excellence Since 1946
Antonov has two designations of this aircraft: AN72 or AN-74. As they have a habit of painting the aircraft type under the window, it’s understandable that a little photoshopping had to occur to make it at least a challenge to figure out. Still, a search for AN-74 quickly brings up an AN-74-200 in Shar Ink’s livery.

We Did It! Women in Aviation Launch
By: Ramona Reynolds
I can’t think of a better way to celebrate International Women’s Day than in the company of so many interesting, inspiring and empowered women; and the men who support and celebrate them. We officially have a new Vancouver Island Chapter of Women In Aviation International! All of our volunteers really rocked it! Everyone really went the extra mile – as usual. Big, big thank you to everyone at the Victoria Flying Club who provided free familiarization flights and flights in the Red Bird SIM for women and girls interested in flying. The staff and instructors were phenomenal and took such good care of all of our attendees. Also thank you to Bill McAllister and Fly Southwest BC for taking 6 women flying for free on as part of our Women In Aviation event.
April 2014
We were joined by our friends from CASARA and COPA 4 Kids. What I love about the aviation community is how different groups always come together to support one another. I was reminded this weekend that you never know who you are going to meet; or what a positive impact they will have on your life. Airplane people are so cool!

I must send a special thank you to my fellow founding VI WAI members Bonnie Tidswell, Lynn Flandera, Christie Hall, Hannah Nakahara and Jessica James. Keep your eye on these women. I expect that we will be seeing great things from them. We have been blessed to meet a very special 88-year old pilot named Phyllis Gaul who was the first female pilot in her home Province of Newfoundland (and the only female pilot in Nfld for quite some time). She received her PPL in 1947 and at that time, where she lived, there were no other women pilots so it was a very challenging time for Phyllis. At the event, Phyllis went up in one of the Club’s Cessna 172’s with Sean Tyrrell and she tried out the RedBird. She loved every minute of her time with us. She is such a vibrant lovely woman. We are so lucky to know her. She is a bright light for all of us.
