With autumn advancing rapidly, conditions made for an excellent flying day. I concentrated on the Kamloops region to highlight its natural beauty and distinctive terrain. It turned into a solid, enjoyable flight, clearly reflected in the video.

582. Flight through Logan Lake in Sudden, Unpleasant Turbulences. Kamloops Sep 28, 2026

The forecast promised an easy, beautiful flight. I had ridden that road on my motorcycle days earlier and was struck by the shifting colors, hoping to see the same from the sky. But forecasts and reality often live in different worlds. The flight turned harsh, with sudden heavy turbulence demanding full focus. I eventually shortened my route to escape the worsening conditions. Weather may change,

579. My Top Adventurous Flight to the Spectacular Dunn Peak Area. Kamloops, Aug 20, 2026

I’m presenting a video of my top adventure flight — 215 km (133 mi) captured in just 16 minutes. The footage shows the entire journey, chronologically and linearly uncut. I had hoped to observe the impact of the out of control wildfire near Saskum Lake, but the valleys were completely loaded with smoke so nothing to see. There is, however, one visual “benefit” to that disaster: the smoke i

578. Perfect Flight to Mt Savona, Tunkwa, Logan & Mamit Lakes, Lac Le Jeune and other. Aug 14, 2026

Just two days after being hammered by severe turbulence, nature offered a full redemption. The visual cues and forecasts matched the previous flight almost exactly, but the actual flying conditions were flawless. I was struck by how close the June 2026 Logan Lake fire burned to the village. Facing the same danger twice in five years must have been deeply unsettling. Overall, it was a beautiful fli

577. Serious Turbulence after Takeoff Cut My Flight to a Fraction. Kamloops Aug 12, 2026

It turned out to be the worst turbulence I’ve ever experienced. The day began with reasonably clear skies, despite numerous wildfires burning out of control nearby. Conditions were calm, and I was ready for a pleasant flight. That changed quickly. The air shifted into an unusual turbulence with sudden hot air bursts and areas that felt like missing air. This short video captures moments from my

576. Flight to Agate Bay via Sun Peaks to Chase and Kamloops over S Thompson River. Aug 4, 2026

Kamloops is surrounded by several serious wildfires, leaving the air very smoky with poor visibility and conditions far from ideal for my kind of fun flying. Still, I noticed a slight break in the haze and decided to take advantage of the opportunity for some exploration. I chose a new route toward Agate Bay in the western, central part of Adams Lake. A sudden burst of turbulence just minutes afte

Aerial view of my motorcycle trip from last week. This part of the region is stunning from above and just as beautiful when explored by road.

573. Flight to Little Fort and Forced to Return Due to Rain on My Planned Route, Jul 3, 2026

Excellent flight to the Little Fort area, though I was forced to return due to rain on my planned route west. The area south of Little Fort is visually unique, especially this day with several layers of cloud stacked overhead. It looked almost like flying over the Amazon Valley—so green and full of life, in sharp contrast to my previous flight in the southern Interior where the wild areas showed
