Сьогодні я відвідав пікнік з нагоди Дня Незалежності України на пляжі Сансет. Це був чудовий час з чудовими людьми та великою підтримкою незалежної України! Слава Україні!

Ground runs on the Convair. The roar of these Allison D15s isn't like your Momma's P&Ws! #Aviation

A rather moist day on the ramp at YVR. GFX50Sii and the 45-100mm f4 performing nicely. #aviation #photography

I'd invite those criticising Zelensky to pop over to Ukraine for a visit.

You don't have to help an incursion into Belgorod like I did... But maybe you'll understand why we need to stop ruzzia there. You'll realize aid is 90% weaponry and military equipment, not limousines and yachts for oligarchs.

Saw Collective Soul and Our Lady Peace on Saturday. Great show! OLP covering a Tragically Hip tune, probably the most Canadian thing I've ever heard.

lol @ rest of Canada. Sometimes living in Vancouver isn't half bad.

Checked out Elibird Aero for a close look at the Pipistrel electric trainer. Pretty cool little bird! #Aviation

Aviation... where you have fourty year old tech spliced into a seventy plus year old airframe.

A year ago, I was on the range in Kharkiv with the Legion. This year, I'm on the ramp in YVR. Life is a trip.
