Below is a set of images taken of a helicopter (AS 350) rescue of an injured hiker on Mount Seymour in North Vancouver, BC on September 20, 2003. I just happened to be at the right place at the right time, camera in hand. The injuries to the hiker were not serious. He claimed to have a broken foot but was making his way down the mountain under his own power before being picked up. Beautiful setting for aviation photography.

Preview pics from the Oregon International Airshow now online
(September 26, 2003)
Gathering of Warbirds image galleries now online with 184 new images (July 10, 2003).
I have added new images to the 747/A340/A330 pages and uploaded a new gallery of the 727-200 (July 1, 2003) Commercial Aviation section.
This CF-18 Hornet visited Abbotsford Airport (CYXX) on May 31, 2003. The pilot (from 441 Squadron flying a 410 jet) gave us the "wing-wag" on a flyby before heading back to 4 Wing Cold Lake.

A new visitor (a least a new livery) to YVR this spring is this Thomas Cook Airlines A330-200. This same aircraft visited YVR last summer in the green, white and blue of JMC Air. More can be seen in my Commercial Aviation section. (pics taken May 10, 2003 - new to site May 26, 2003)

Cuban leader Fidel Castro made a brief stopover at Vancouver International Airport on March 4, 2003 aboard this Il-62. Truly a rare site at YVR.
