Mine was a mighty C-152 in Saskatoon in 1987. C-GZCT. I think it has passed on since then, but it was a sweet ride and I had my hands full.

What was the first plane you ever flew?

Same here! I think BFC had the plane only for a week when I did my intro flight. After that, it was to the planes that were older then me

ZCT??? I think Skywings in Red Deer has that plane right now.

My first real flight was when I was in Beaver's in one of Mr. Borek's Twin Otters. C-GNTA (I think) with the then Chief Pilot of Borek.

Anyone know if that picture is still up at Borek?

An airplane that you actually flown, or just ridden in? In the first case, it was a C-172, and in the latter, a McDonnell Douglas DC-10, with Canadian Airlines, a trans-Pacific flight.
