Merry Christmas
from the Victoria Flying Club Santa’s Flight Test
As we reflect on the past year, and look forward to the year ahead, we want to extend our thanks and appreciation to each of our members and staff who have given so much to the Victoria Flying Club. We wish you a holiday season filled with family and friends, peace and joy. And remember that every smile, every visit and every expression of thoughtfulness will make a difference to someone’s life. All of us here at the Club wish you and your families a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy, Healthy New Year.
Santa Claus, like all pilots, gets regular visits from Transport Canada, and the TC examiner arrived last week for the preChristmas flight check. In preparation, Santa had the VFC line crew elves wash the sled and bathe all the reindeer. Santa got his log book out and asked his instructor to make sure all his paperwork was in order. He knew they would examine all his equipment and truly put Santa's flying skills to the test. The examiner walked slowly around the sled. He checked the reindeer harnesses, the landing gear, and even Rudolph's nose. Everything was in top shape, thanks to Gary’s crew of AME elves. The examiner painstakingly reviewed Santa's weight and balance calculations for sled's enormous payload.

Finally, they were ready for the check ride. Santa got in and fastened his seat belt and shoulder harness and checked the compass. Then the examiner hopped in carrying, to Santa's surprise, a shotgun. "What's that for?!?" asked Santa incredulously. The examiner winked and said, "I'm not supposed to tell you this ahead of time," as he leaned over to whisper in Santa's ear, "but you're gonna lose an engine on takeoff."

C-17 Globemaster Visit to CYYJ - November 3 Alan Johnston, VFC Member For those hanging around the club that morning, the word from Graham was that a C-17 would be arriving at YYJ at 1:30, and a tour could be had at 2:00 p.m. The pilot, a VFC graduate, had generously offered to spend some time with those interested. This opportunity was not to be missed! I stationed myself at the picnic tables off the end of 09 to watch its arrival. As it approached, you could hear the thunder of the engines, and passing overhead you could hear the vortices swirling. A few seconds later the calm water around the seaplane base was ruffled with the settling tornadoes. Circuit traffic was sent to the hills, and the first two to attempt landing
after the C-17 must have been instructed to overshoot. 2:00 p.m. at the old 443 base, Captain Sebastien “Se-bas” Lemire came out to greet the VFC tourists and took us out to his plane which had delivered a Sea King helicopter from CFB Trenton. For the next hour and a half we toured and stood in awe at this massive plane, as Captain Lemire graciously talked about its performance and showed the pride in his plane and love of his job. Although he was the Captain, he had handed ownership temporarily to the loadmaster and crew to delicately off load the folded up Sea King.
Some interesting facts about Captain Lemire and his $300 million C-17: He originally joined the Navy in Victoria and was part of a Sea King crew. He learned to fly at VFC and got his wings in 2002 and subsequently transferred to the Air Force where his goal was to fly transport aircraft. After several years on Hercules, he was selected for the C-17. A true sports car, he calls it, easy to fly and is responsive. At 580,000 lbs gross, it can land in 3500 ft. He has to pass a check ride 4 times a year to be able to land the plane in a “small box” on the runway in order to maintain proficiency.

Empty and light on fuel, the C-17 can lift off at 90 kts in 1000 ft. It is pointed skyward at 35 degrees and the 4 Pratt and Whitneys keep constant acceleration in the climb. The massive flaps lower into the engine thrust stream, creating a large down wash. Along with the wing’s airflow, this action generates huge amounts of lift, allowing slow approach and take off speeds. In cruise at 30,000 ft, engine reverse thrust can be applied. This allows the plane to descend at 15,000 ft/min, such as might be needed into a Aviation Excellence Since 1946
war theater situation. Captain Lemire said he tried this once, but that was enough! With the wings and engines shaking and being pinned by his harness in a steep descent was not pleasant he said.
After a period of delicate coaxing, the Sea King emerged down the ramp of the C-17 and was towed to the squadron hangar to have its pontoons and other appendages put back together.
The tail is 50 ft off the ground and most de-icing equipment can only spray fluid up at the tail surface. To ensure that adequate coverage has been provided, a crew member has to climb up a claustrophobic ladder inside the tail, and open an outside hatch to inspect. Sounds like a job a Captain would delegate.
The enthusiasm of Captain Lemire, the pride in his aircraft and his job was huge motivation to the younger club pilots, just to show “it can be done”. To have a job like his was one of my early aspirations, but life took a different course. I’m quite happy now to be in command of a mighty 172.

COPA Corner
Submitted by: Eleanor Eastick Well, gosh, Oshkosh! What an interesting talk about flying to Oshkosh in 2004 as a 200 hour pilot in a Cessna loaded with tent and camping equipment. Many thanks to Allan Rempel for sharing the joyous and sometimes scary adventure. Who wants to go next year? It would be great fun to organize a group to go down together. www.eaa.org/en/airventure
The next COPA meeting will be held on Tuesday December 1st at 7 PM in the VFC lounge. The guest speaker is Peter Lagergren. Peter has an extensive aviation background and will talk about the 40 distinct types of aircraft he has piloted over his career. He will reflect on some of their handling qualities and weird characteristics. This will be an interesting talk with personal anecdotes and a video and powerpoint presentation.
Please remember, you don’t need to be a COPA member to come and hear the interesting guest speakers each month. The meetings are open to everyone who has an interest in aviation, and would like to meet other people with similar interests. For more information, contact copaflight6@gmail.com.
Don’t miss this last meeting of 2015!

Keeping Track Of Our Results The staff and management of VFC are always looking for opportunities to improve. How can we increase the utilization of our ßeet? Can we spread the demand into the morning and evening hours, taking pressure off our busiest mid day period? Are pilots taking advantage of beautiful weekends for recreational ßights? The management reports produced by FleetCaptain allow us to address these questions. We can Þnd areas needing improvement and focus our attention squarely on them. And perhaps most importantly, we can identify areas where VFC leads the industry, such as in aircraft utilization. The graph above shows that we ßew an average of 137 hours per C172 during July. That rate of ßight hours per aircraft is an accomplishment - a record-breaking accomplishment for our club. It demonstrates the staff’s dedication to professional operations and a willingness to embrace the technology that enables it. The graph on the right shows we’re not taking advantage of all our weekends, and there’s room to grow the recreational ßying segment. Lots to ponder É

Lima Sierra One - Over
A Christmas Story by: Eleanor Eastick, VFC Member I called my friend Michaela the other day, and after identifying myself, asked if she’d like to go shopping with me. It was Christmas Eve and there were bargains to be had everywhere. We females love shopping, especially when we can save big money while we spend. Michaela is a fellow pilot and undoubtedly the prettiest air traffic controller in Canada.
indeed back in service and I pulled into her driveway right on schedule.
“Stand by one,” she said as she dealt with a distraction in her kitchen, “Say again the destination.”
I smiled at the thought as I wheeled out onto the road. I adored my young friend Michaela but didn’t see her often; work schedules and all that. She was a gal of few words, but every one counted. Nothing got by her either. I had actually planned a left turn out, but she quickly apprised me that the Beech Street arrival was US because of road work.
“Shopping,” I replied. “Maybe the new Bonanza Mall at Beech and Fleet Street. Pick you up at two o’clock?” “Roger, I check your remarks,” said Michaela, “I’ll be ready for the straight out by then.”
“Okay, let’s go!” she said, jumping into my car. She waved goodbye to her two cats playing on a tree stump in the front yard. “Turn right, 90 degrees at the end of the driveway.” I wondered if she hadn’t been in ATC a bit too long....
“I’ll give you progressive instructions,” Michaela added, before I could even tell her I was unfamiliar with that particular route. She was on top of everything. “Stay with me and I’ll get you on your way to the Bonanza Mall. Turn left at the next traffic light if able.” And suddenly, there we were; the mall lay dead ahead. There was little traffic as we drove up the ramp and parked. That was the best part about shopping on Christmas Eve - no crowds. That and the bargains! In the early afternoon a lull had settled over the downtown area; the pressures and anxiety of the holiday season were, by that time, being put aside and the real joy of Christmas was beginning to filter through. Everyone became kinder, less rushed, less driven now that the hustle and bustle were over.
“Uh, okay. See you around two...” My reply was a bit hesitant and I asked her about the recent notice to road users about unserviceable traffic lights en route to her house. “Disregard that notice,” Michaela sniffed. “They never update them. I’ll be waiting in my driveway - caution for kittycat activity vicinity of lawn.” Happily I drove off towards Michaela’s immaculate bungalow; the traffic lights were

Feature Article Even the incessant playing of carols was less annoying and the mall decorations looked prettier and less tawdry than they had just a week before. Michaela and I made our way along the galleria to The Bay, past little knots of fellow bargain-hunters. At the entrance to the store stood a lone Salvation Army kettle, its minder worn out from bell-jingling, sitting in a nearby chair. The rush was over; people were tired but a sense of renewed energy was making itself felt at the same time. The adults were kicking back and relaxing, children were agog with anticipation of a visit from Santa Claus; even the skeptics were taking a break from their cynicism to enjoy a bit of peace. Michaela and I too, became caught up with joyous vigor as we browsed the ransacked shelves of Christmas merchandise. “Aha!,” I exclaimed, as I picked up undoubtedly the most garish piece of, well, junk in the store. Sporting Kelly green stubby wings laden with wrapped presents, the cast acrylic lowwing plane was a tail-dragger with a jolly Santa behind the yoke. The aircraft was festooned with gold and silver tinsel streaming back from the leading edges and the cockpit’s big round bubble canopy was a snow-globe.

year because I want to be there when he arrives.”
Michaela looked a bit guarded before becoming downright conspiratorial. She whispered to me, “I can tell you that’s not what he flies. I’m working tonight, and I hope to meet him or at least see his aircraft.”
“He, who?” I asked again.
“He, who?” I asked in surprise. “You’re the senior controller; why are you working Christmas Eve, anyway?”
“Oh, wow! Look at this!” I said excitedly to Michaela as I shook the gaudy plane to fill the

“The guy in Lima Sierra One, the lead sled.” Her voice fell to a whisper, “I’m pretty sure it’s Santa Claus.” “The lead sled? Santa? Are you serious?” I was talking too loudly and Michaela warned me again. “Alright”, she said, “I shouldn’t be telling you this, but no one in the tower has actually seen Lima Sierra One or its driver. December 2015
Feature Article The staff has told me that they talk to him when he calls in for clearance, but somehow he can off-load and depart unseen. It makes me wonder how alert they are after midnight.” She continued softly, “The thing is, we don’t even know what Lima Sierra One is. It’s a lead sled of some sort, heavy and fast in straight flight, but it’s also highly manoeuverable - can’t be an F-105. I think it may be an SR-71 Blackbird - we know where he is when he checks in but there’s almost no radar signature; we can’t see him.” “This is just silly,” I said. “I know you air traffic controllers all over the country are just putting on a show for the little kids. They love hearing that Santa’s on his way and you guys in ATC make it seem real.” I had said the wrong thing again. “Are you impugning Nav Canada’s integrity?” Michaela was obviously nettled by my
December 2015
comment. I quickly and with some embarrassment, declared that I was in no way knocking them. “Heck, no. But it’s just a bit of fantasy played out for the youngsters, isn’t it?” Michaela looked incensed. “What makes you think it’s fantasy? Do you think we’d all be in on some sort of conspiracy? Every controller working the Christmas Eve shift in Canada has heard the guy in the lead sled. He’s obviously an experienced pilot, his voice has a familiar ring to it, we seem to know him. And somehow, after we’ve talked to him, we all feel a sense of peace and wonder. And somehow, too, the world seems a happier place.” Here was my friend, 30 years my junior, admonishing me for my doubt, cynicism and insensitivity. But was there really a guy in a lead sled whipping through the sky on
13
Christmas Eve bringing peace and goodwill? For sure, there was already something magic in the air; the intangible aura of quiet that descended like a warm blanket over our tired bodies, the feeling of kindness towards our fellow humans. I realized that Michaela knew something so many of us are unable to grasp. Or maybe it was something we knew as children but lost as we got older; the freedom to believe in the unexplained. When I dropped Michaela off in her driveway late that afternoon, her sapphire blue eyes were shining with the expectation of the arrival of Lima Sierra One on her shift. She knew that the veteran pilot, the guy with the familiar voice, was the Big Guy in the Red Suit. Now I knew it too. “Merry Christmas!” I called as I drove away. “Roger that,” she replied, “over and out.”

Love and Leadership - Creating Balance Tracey Burns, Executive Coaching and Consulting “Power without love is reckless and abusive, and love without power is sentimental and anemic. Power at its best is love implementing the demands of justice, and justice at its best is power correcting everything that stands against love.” - Martin Luther King Jr. When introduced in the workplace, Love is a word sure to raise a few eyebrows. No matter your relationship to the word or the energy created in simply hearing the word we all have a fundamental desire to love and be loved. There are countless amazing books written on the subject and I’m not talking about fairy tales. The quote above says it beautifully, however, the challenge comes in the implementation. Organizations in today’s economy face bigger and bigger challenges. We find ourselves making business decisions through the stifling mask of fear and scarcity. Driven by the ever increasing demand to produce more with less fear runs rampant and rough shod over our most talented workers stifling creativity and thwarting initiative. But what if there was another way to proceed? Imagine what it would be like if you were to create a work environment as suggested by the quote? What December 2015
would the impact be on others if your leadership and actions were fueled by Power and Love? You may be pessimistic and/ or confronted by the notion of bringing Love to your own leadership despite all of the data to support the benefits and extraordinary results available to your organization. Including but not limited to:
not bully; be thoughtful, but not lazy; be humble, but not timid; be proud, but not arrogant; have humor, but without folly. - Jim Rohn
• Increased productivity; • Higher profitability; • Reduced absenteeism; • Improved quality of product or service; • Increased employee retention; And • Improved safety Getting there will require that you give up your resistance and get creative. It will also require you to get related to your work force. Listen to your employees. What are they trying to tell you? You may have a notion of how they receive love but consider that is your interpretation. Be willing to risk, to be bold and to be vulnerable. Discover them. Ask them, engage them.
