Celebrate Father's Day by taking your dad for a
flight in one of our iconic de Havilland Canada DHC-2
"Beavers".... This is a great opportunity to go for a quick ride
onboard one of our iconic de Havilland Canada DHC-2 "Beaver"
floatplanes. Dock to dock your ride will be about 25 minutes (15 minutes air
time) but this will give you plenty of time to enjoy the features of our
“Beavers” such as their comfortable interiors, enlarged windows for easy
viewing and aviation headsets for all guests.
Our pilots have a tight bond with the aircraft they
fly and will be more than happy to enhance your onboard experience by answering
any questions you or your guests may have throughout your ride.
The Beaver floatplane provides passengers and
onlookers a sense of nostalgia for a point in time when Northern Canada was
first being opened up and discovered by aircraft. The Beaver was designed for
flight in rugged and remote areas. It's short takeoff and landing (STOL)
capabilities make it ideal for areas normally only accessible by canoe or by
foot. Designed and built in Canada to operate on floats, skis, and wheels it is
powered by a reliable 450hp radial (round) engine that produces a very
distinctive rumble.
The first production Beaver was delivered to the
Ontario Department of Lands and Forests, a design partner, in April 1948.
Production ceased in 1967, after approximately 1,700 Beavers had been
built. Hundreds of Beavers are still flying today. It's rugged dependability and exceptional
performance have made it a favourite with bush pilots, passengers and operators
for almost 70 years. The Beaver is considered by many to be the best
bushplane ever built. The demand for this ‘half-ton truck of the sky' is still
as strong as ever. The Beaver was named one of the top ten Canadian engineering
achievements of the 20th century. It
has become iconic to plane spotters and has been commemorated on currency and
postage, and received recognition in artwork, photography and in film.
