I worked with JH down in Haiti flying AKM. They were looking at doing some float work down in the Caribbean but I'm not sure what the status of that is.

I'd still take like to fly in that part of the country though. Great scenery from the pictures I've seen.

Don't know. That was the old color scheme that AKM had. When I was flying it down in Haiti it was white with blue and turquiose trim. I like the grey with orange though.

That's the old Simpson Air colour scheme - JH used to work there before the SNA days.

Looks like Little Doctor Lake eh Magdrop?!?!?

Never worked for him but know him pretty good and one would pray to have a boss as good as he is!

Really good guy, and about as good an off-strip driver as you can find. Whenever I've been in YFS and needed a hand, J was always willing to help.

Of course it is a lake over the horn! Where else would it be? I wish I was driving but alas I'm stuck at school until the 20th of April.

Do you have a better email than the one on the cancom website for JH Flynorth? I have sent off a few emails but haven't gotten any responses.

Cheers.

Check out http://www.southnahanniairways.com/ for more recent pictures. They're still of AKM, but it's the right colour scheme.

In Simpson we're allowed to log drinking time, every hour drunk counts for two towards your ATPL, and I'm well on my way to being over qualified right now! :drinkers: next stop the Sub Arctic and maybe a night cap at the Inn :smt030
