BUT even better he hooked up his GOPRO to camera a section of area we where reviewing and took all the GPS points; going above and beyond in my opinion. What an amazing way to see the magnitude of the oil sands operations and the river valley of Fort McMurray. We've lived here for 1.5 years and wanted to better.
Great flight, with great people. The Pilot was extremely knowledgeable about the surrounding area and even gave us a tour of the rescue heli in the hanger where we also. Our family of four went out for a one hour helicopter ride today over Fort McMurray with Phoenix Heli-Flight. Our pilot, Cameron Spring was wonderful.
