A Fall Day
Air Canada Jazz Dash 8 in Terrace
With only one aircraft allowed to be IFR, approaching or departing Terrace, we sat waiting for a Central Mountain Air 1900 to arrive, and this Air Canada Jazz Dash 8 to depart and climb up to around 8000' or so.
My Personal Speed Record
Strong winds out of the North West gave us a 115 knot tail wind on this Terrace to Vancouver leg, 420 knots over the ground is pretty quick for a King Air. CYBD is Bella Coola, and that diamond with the -19 is that Air Canada Jazz Dash 8 we followed out of Terrace, 1900' below us and about 25 miles ahead.

Hey av8r,
Great shots! Have you surpased your old ground speed record yet?
I would say so James. I'm not even sure what is now, but it's over 500 :)
