I Have NO IDEA Where This Plane Is Going. Dukemeister: Only made it 8mins into watching this video whilst playing that game Vlada Mykhailova suggested in the comments before puking everywhere, starting a fight with front door (the door won) and demanding a large donor kebab with all the trimmings from the cat (dont even own a cat) working the grill in my kitchen. Absinthe probably wasnt the best drink to play this game with. Though I am imagining most other drinks would yield fairly similar results given the amount of Noel not knowing stuff/whats going on/where he is and sighing after every other word. Still, good vid!

Just now watching your Quebec videos. Dont know how I missed it. Your first stop is Bagotville. Not baguetteville. Lol! Near Chicoutimi (its in Saguenay actually, about 600km north of Montreal. Big airforce base there. Only airforce base where fighter jets can land in Quebec. Anyway, you reaaaaaaally picked some remote places in Quebec to land. Wish I had known you were in Montreal or in my beautiful province. Saw you were staying near my office building. I used to get coffee at that Starbucks. Second stop that was skipped was Baie Comeau not La Baie Comeau.

If you escaped the horrors of France the last thing you think people would do is retain the language if others were available. An Irish turning up in Korea changing the language to Leprichorn and naming a town Pot'o gold may have a few problems when it comes to painting everything green. Guiness fried rice and cheese rolling would sound as appealing as Canadian wheather and their lost geography airport announcers. Norse, they should all speak Norse, or Inuit, sober Inuit.

When I was a little boy I was very very sickly having been a preemie baby. And I had to be flown repeatedly down to Montreal sick kids for life saving surgeries. But the Great thrill, was that my godfather Freddy Roluf was a pilot he frequently flew the flights that I was on if it wasn't TCA which was the Trans Canadian airlines, and frequently on his flights we would suddenly dive down to closer to the surface of the river and the Gulf to whale watch.

Great video as always Noel! I do love it when you've no clue where you're going lol It does bring back a lot of memories too, I used to fly the J31 and J41 quite a bit when I worked for BAE on their corporate aircraft, the J31 we lovingly called the 'Vomit Comet' sadly they replaced the 41 with an Embraer 145 but the jet was a lot quicker but that was funny when it was half empty and they had to balance the plane lol

I can tell you being a private pilot that the second leg you landed at was a very tough landing for those pilots and they did extremely well! flying an instrument only (ifr) approach/landing fully in the clouds while only being able to see the runway with probably less than 1000ft of visual clearance before touchdown was impressive!

Lol. kewl to look at what locals know through a new lens. I think those gestures were Quebecois for turbulence/gusty winds. Now just imagine this trip in winter with stronger winds, sub-zero temps, icing and blinding snow squalls. Come back next winter to Northern Ontario.

Bless your heart, but you wouldn't have understood a word he said anyway Quebec a French is basically medieval Norman colonial French with a mix of Franglais, and an incredibly nasal accent and huge amounts of slang. Save your Parisian French bless your heart

I used to fly one of these. The good thing is that if you divert youll never be far away from where either you started or the destination as you cant carry much fuel.
ps. There is no such thing as the pilot when there are two of them on the flight deck.

reply

You probably didn't land at the second stop because of weather I would bet that the airport doesn't have any instrument approaches, or any type of vnav. Or even a GPS approach or a VOR approach and the weather probably was extremely limited
reply

I flew in and out of Bagotville many times in the late 70's early 80's whilst joining and leaving ships at, nearby, Port Alfred. Back then Dorval was the domestic airport in Montreal, Mirabelle was the International airport.

I love binge watching your videos & this had me in hysterics. I must admit I did wonder why you didnt ask the pilot, Parlez-vous Anglais? (Excuse my French) I dont mean to be pedantic though lol
reply

Even the actual French will repeat instructions in English on aircraft. Most Canadians are known for being very polite, but the arrogance and rudeness of the French Canadians is unbelievable.
reply

Bounjour and Au Revoir! Good thing no one used the Loo on this flight. The other thing is everyone would know who used the bathroom because theres only 10 people on the flight
reply

I find it ridiculous that they only speak French when they know your English. National languages of Canada are both French and English. Its unfair treatment in my opinion.
reply

Noel. Can you do a Video of the London to Perth Australia flight when they reopen the border. Interested to know how you cope with 17 hrs on a plane in Economy
reply

It's hard to put into works how BBQ is such a strong piece of American culture, especially the South. Technically DC is in the South. It's a way of life.
reply

Landing in the second leg was particularly impressive. The pilots had executed an ifr approach in a full clouds with just over 900ft of visual clearance.
reply

I kinda yelled at my screen when I saw the Herc. I spent a summer at Trenton and became very used to the sound of those engines. I love it so much!
reply

I thought they were supposed to do everything in both English and French. Why was the safety briefing and announcements not repeated in both languages?
