I wish I had my camera!

We live on the Ottawa River and it is on the flight path for several modes of transportation. The Forces base is up river in a community called Pembroke. Often we have helicopters that surface just over our tree tops, with our glass roof it can provide an eerie response. The military copters are using the river as their navigational tool and you can hear the " whooping" before you can see them, suddenly their green bodies appear.


Then there is the Ottawa Flight School training in Constance Lake just a few miles down river, once again they are on our path. Part of their training is of course landing on their pontoons. The planes hovers slightly over the waters surface and then up they go,practicing landing and take off techniques. Yesterday there were three planes of different colors all float planes and flying in tandom, Oh where or where was my camera?
