Walking along the Middle Arm of the Fraser

Apr 11, 2015 19:53

After finishing lunch with my partner and before going back to the office I decided to walk along the river to check how my older grandson is doing his rowing exercises. Pics that caught my eye are presented below.

We had a lunch in Flying Beaver, then I crossed the river by bridge and parked exactly opposite this pub and air terminal. Two Otters (DHC-3) are moored there:


Another terminal, Seair, is situated a little bit lower by river flow. Cessna 208 Caravan and Turbo Beaver are awaiting passengers:


Cessna 185 Skywagon arrives from Galliano Island:



Yes, I’ve seen Anton. This iss he in blue tee-short rowing past the both terminals to the Pacific:


The Fraser is opened to the ocean just here and you even can see huge Chinese cargo ship on the horizon:


Cessna 208 Caravan arrives from Victoria:


The moment of water contact:


Beaver (DHC-2) makes a noise before taking off:


YVR is busy. DHC-3 is taxing to terminal, DH|C-8-400 climbing the sky:


Air France’s 777-200 ER ready for run:


Run and take off:


Ten and half hours approximately before landing in Paris:


Korean triple seven going to Seoul:


But my after lunch first pics were taken on the other side of the river, in pub close neighbourhood. The Beaver is a workhorse for many years in our backwater district:


The Otter plays a role of public transportation even more effectively:


Going to my parking place I was one minute late to get good picture of South China’s 787 and you can see this beautiful machine on the way to Guangzhou only in this projection today:


Bell 407 is living in this nest too:


Filipino’s triple seven is ready for flight to Manila:


Orca’s Piper Navajo Chieftain arrived from Abbotsford:


Pacific Coastal Beechcraft 1900C is parked near South terminal:


This machine recalled me about river:


I turned around, looked back, see this picture and decided to walk along the Fraser to see more:


And you know the rest of my walk :)
