You captured some excellent pictures through the plexiglas. My husband and I have an airplane and I love to take picture as we fly low over the terrain. One problem I encounter quite frequently is reflections on the plexiglas. Early and late day pictures come out the best, or ones out the side window. But in my case, there is a small wind wing (used only on the ground of course) right in the way. That is quite a runway at Bamfield. Our plane can’t handle such runways, but we’ve been to some really great ones farther north. Because many communities depend on air for the transport of their products and people, they are longer and a bit less bumpy.

These are all terrific photos even if they were taken through the windows. Looks like a fun trip, I’ve never been to an airport as small as Bamfield’s.

Margy,
Thanks for the link to your flying posts. I browsed through there a few months back, it sure looks like you enjoy the flying as much as I do.
Petite,
Thanks, it does look very peaceful and in fact was. Enjoy your weekend as well.
Diane,
Bamfield is an amazing little airport, makes the small grass strip on Pender Island where I lived for the past twenty years look like an international airport! What’s even more funky is the “control tower” or house or whatever one would call it. I’ll add a photo a little later.
Hi Kevin,
Such a beautiful place. I don’t think I will ever fly in a plane without the door. The airport is cute and rustic, and far different than I am used to – but I bet it takes less time to check in and go through security.

Hi Lynn,
Thanks for dropping by. Yeah, security is a little lax! The funny thing is that their is a customs phone number on the buiding so you can call in after landing in Canada. I can’t imaging anyone coming out to check up on you but… you never know!!!
I love your photos. I’ve been to Washington State, but not to the coast. Now I’m sad seeing what I missed shooting. I’m a very amature photographer myself. I wish I had the funds to be able to travel and shoot pictures “no where near as good but similar” to these.
