Hi Julie,
Fun post while we wait for Dave to send his photos...hurry up, Dave!
Nice to see you, Dan. It's so good to see lasting childhood friendships. I saw a few of mine this summer and it's amazing how easily you can be transported back to happy, carefree days.
Ha ha! Jules!! That watch strap. You will NOT let that one go, will ya? :)
Bassie in a plane! HOORAY!!! I hope you continue your flying lessons. Well, after you spend some time on THIS side of the pond. I am very excited.
Eric and his bunny. They sure look like they are loving life. Wonderful! :)
And only you, Jules...nothing says "I miss you" more than a firing range target. It could also mean "you dodged a bullet" or "I'm gonna get you one day"...
You just never know when it comes to MissTWA. ;)
Love you for it.
Again, lovely post...brings a smile to my face. :) <3

JULIE!!!
My first comment for this post. There will be
more!
Hello back - Giulia. :) The people we went to
school with had a unique perspective - they
got to see us - day by day - become the people
we are today.
Bas, you are very young and already becoming
a pilot. Of course, when I was your age, the
Wright Brothers were just making a name for
themselves...
And, thank you to Captain Doug, for starting
his blog. Without it, there are dear friends
that I never would've met, and aviation facts
that I would not know.
Great times! And a nice interlude..
And yes Daniel, thanks indeed to Capn Doug..
Farnborough pics here btw..
Dave: Some of those photos are quite
shocking... :)
Regarding the pic of Doug & Me: That's
not stock footage! It is a recent sighting
of Captain FTFD - 19 days ago.
WHO JUST BOOKED A TICKET TO MONTREAL WITH END DESTINATION OTTAWA (GIULIA!!!) ON AN MD-11!?!?!?!
That's right!!!!
MEEEE!
I'm soooo exciteeeeedddddd =D
Hah! But first, lemme take a selfie :P
That's some old pics coming up Julie, whow! Reminds me of the very beginning of how 'we' met!
Less than a month before I get to spend 10 weeks 'over there'.
That flying lesson, was awesome btw. (I should say 'epic' since that's my 'thang' =D)
Beautiful hot day in The NL and the pilot let me fly all the way just a couple of meters before touchdown. Truly amazing but I'm way too tall for a two-seater. Had my feet under the rudder pedals while he did that part (which is quite tricky as well).
Oh, and I needed a new profile pic :P
Times long gone and what a difference Daniel, whaow.
I'm going to try and sleep, if I can. Certainly no sleeping on that flight!
Bas Man checking out...buzzed!
Yes! Bas is coming to Canada! A little more than 2 months in Ottawa...we are excited!
Julie, we'll make sure to send photos.
Dan, it's a great photo of you two.
Dave, if you have the photos, then why has she not posted them yet? Ahem, Jules... ;)
((Hugs)) and happy weekend to all!
Paul Daniel...I could not agree more when Thanking Captain Doug...for his blog.....if not all of us would not be the friends we are......the Aviation family we are...learning and enjoying our Passion for Aviation.......not to EVEN mention........the visits...of the AAS (WorldWide).......I feel like the luckiest blog on the planet..now...and as I've said........Aviation brought us together....Friendship will Keep us together......and Paul Daniel.........it is SO Awesome to have you back with us..please stay....
Hey Dave.......time for a brand new Farnborough 2014 post....of your pictures.......this is going to be FUN...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I AM STILL IN SHOCK ABOUT BAS'S BOOKING HIS TRIP TO OTTAWA.....AND ON THE MD-11....!!!!!!!!!.....THE AAS..IS ABOUT TO GO CRAZY....WITH THIS MEETING........I AM SO EXCITED FOR YOU BAS MAN........I JUST CAN'T SHUT THE FUCK UP ABOUT.....IT!!!!...GG...WHAT A LOVELY THING TO DO.......BAS GETS TO VISIT..LEARN AND SPREAD HIS WINGS SO TO SPEAK.......THERE IN CANADA......SHOULD MAKE FOR SOME AWESOME POST...CAN'T WAIT.....!!!!
GG......not to worry...I am putting a post together with Dave's pics.......coming very soon....!!
Hey Daniel! Yep, it looked like a recent pic - the wrinkles give it away! :)
Bas! Great selfie, I have the same problem as you in little bug smashers being 6 foot 3 inches..
So you're heading to Canada in a Tri-holer, that's fantastic on so many levels! Wave to me down below on your way, look forward to hearing more about it!
All the best
DW
Wrinkles, Dave? Yes, I imagine it's like the rings of
a tree trunk!
Doug Fact:
Regarding his 1st job in construction. Roddy, a
slightly older kid in the neighbourhood, was the
one hired to help build a house. He brought
young Doug along; Roddy didn't work out on the
job, or couldn't continue.
So, all the builder had was 1 Doug - which, it
turns out was a good thing. The kid turned
out to have a real aptitude for the trades.
