Have spent the last 5 years working at remote diamond and gold mines in the NWT and far north of SK, MB, ON, QC...
Have flown on the lot: 732 with gravel strip mods, C-130s, Metroliners, ATRs, Twotters, Caribou, Caravans, DC-3s, Dash 7s etc etc etc...
Personal favorite? Calm Air's Dornier 328 twin-jet.
Small, fast, economical and always seems to get through the very worst of the Canadian Winter.
