Name: Keith W E (Username: KWE)
Location: Edmonton, Canada
Birthday: April 14, 1983
Sex: Male
About: On July 16th 2008 I moved to Moosonee Ontario. I did this to fly a Cessna 206, and a Piper PA32-260 Cherrokee 6 for a company called Bushland Airways. It was a great way to break into the challenging, scary, and rewarding career in the aviation industry.
My contract ended December 1st 2008, but I was lucky enough to get a job again in Moosonee with a company called Wabusk Air. They have a mixed fleet of 2 King Air A100's a straight Navajo and a Navajo Chieftain.
It is now a few months into it an im sitting at 1100hr total and now have 350hr of turbine time on the A100. The money defiantly isn't great, but the experience is amazing. I took a few pictures and some video's over my time spent here and there is more coming.

I have been flying since the summer of 2001 and have wanted to fly since I watch Top Gun or maybe even before that. I wouldnt want to do anything else, best Job in the world. Or rather over the World. Still wish I was doing it in a Hornet though. But maybe that is still an option.

Feel free to drop me a MSG any time, I'm around here poking around more often then not.

I got a job for you. You could fly over here to Norway and then pick me up and fly me to the nearest military airbase. I'd stay there about the rest of my lifetime staring at the birds. When I'm done you could fly me back and then fly home again. How does that sound? :P How much would you want for the job?
