Remember how much fun we had last year when the B-25 Maid in the Shade came to VFC? We’re going to do it all again this year... bigger and better! And YOU can be involved. Keep reading to find out how you can be part of the team at VFC and get an up close and personal look at this year’s guest of honour... the B-17 Sentimental Journey!

The Victoria Flying Club is looking forward to hosting the Arizona Wing of the Commemorative Air Force this coming Summer August 10th - 17th with their Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress ‘Sentimental Journey’. As this is a Flying Tour, the B-17 will be available for flights, and when not airborne available for touring on static display.

This year the Victoria Flying Club is calling upon members to act as volunteers to assist in making this year’s week-long visit an even greater success. For anyone interested in helping out with the visit of this historic aircraft, please email Graham at [email protected].

Continued from last month...

Early projects included restoration and repainting in combat color, installation of the chin and ball turrets and restoration of the navigator’s station back to original condition. Members soon learned that restoring

an airplane meant trips to junkyards, bargaining, trading or begging anyone who had a needed item, or contacting businesses that might be able to fabricate parts that could not be located. By the end of 1981, they were ready to put all the pieces together.

Under skilled hands, Sentimental Journey literally began to come apart. The grounding orders listed these areas of concentration: painting, re-skinning, wiring, radio room, bomb bay doors and top, ball and tail turrets.

The interior was stripped of all paint and grease. Paint stripper was sprayed throughout the interior and members armed with toothbrushes stepped in to clean the nooks and crannies. The aluminum skin was removed from around the nose, cockpit and back to the top of the bomb bay for new sheet metal. The entire aircraft was rewired and a new instrument panel constructed, complete with lettering and artwork. The radio room was outfitted with a new radio operator’s table and radio racks.

Throughout the restoration, Boeing Aerospace in Seattle donated valuable assistance by providing pictures and engineering drawings. During a visit by Sentimental Journey to the Seattle plant in 1979, shop personnel installed a new nose turret, the first major piece of

equipment of the restoration.The most difficult task was locating a top turret. One was eventually found through Art and Birdine Lacey, who owned the “Bomber Gas Station” in Milwaukie, Oregon, where a B-17 had been sitting on top of their station for over 37 years. Harsh weather and vandals had done significant damage, but the top turret was still intact. A deal was struck between both parties, the Arizona Wing would provide much needed work for the “The Bomber,” and the Laceys would donate the top turret to Sentimental Journey.

First, the members had to prepare the parts they would need for the Lacey’s plane. A new glass nose and facsimile top turret were fabricated along with a fiberglass tail. In July 1981, a team arrived at Art Lacey’s gas station, and in 48 hours had replaced every piece of glass in the plane and all three missing doors. A dummy fiberglass top and tail turret were installed, topping off the work with a pair of simulated .50 caliber machine guns for the chin and tail turrets. The crew reported that there were no words to describe the Lacey’s hospitality. By August 1982, the top turret, along with the “Cheyenne” tail turret, were installed on Sentimental Journey.

Over the next three years, restoration continued on Sentimental Journey. The work

B-17 ‘Sentimental Journey’ - Part Three

was performed outdoors since the wing still did not have a hangar. In 1985 ground was broken for the wing’s permanent hangar facility. With the new facility, repairs to Sentimental Journey could now be performed inside. As the hangar and museum grew, so did the number of aircraft the wing was restoring.

In subsequent years, Sentimental Journey has made her appearance at hundreds of air shows and exhibitions. By 1986, Sentimental Journey was making an average of 60 appearances annually throughout the United States and Canada. Disaster struck in 1988 when brake failure during a landing at the Burbank Airport in California extensively damaged the underside front section of the aircraft and took six months to repair.

With the end of the summer air show schedule, Sentimental Journey returns to Falcon Field in Mesa, Arizona, to undergo general repairs and restoration work. Many people don’t realize that this is an ongoing project. An average of 80,000 people tour through Sentimental Journey during the summer months. The amount of work to be accomplished during the winter months can be staggering. Everything from engine changes to aircraft repainting has to be performed before the next air show season starts in early May.”

COPA Quadrant

Submitted by: Eleanor Eastick

Guest speaker for the June COPA meeting, Jeff Morris, kept us interested, amused and amazed with the running of Angel Flight, the volunteer organization of which he is CEO. It is a very well run outfit under Jeff’s tireless efforts - rules, regulations, permits and a maze of red tape with Transport Canada are all sorted out and

the wonderful organization rolls on giving help to so many sick people and their families. Bravo Jeff and your Angels!

The next COPA Flight 6 meeting will be July 7th, 7:00 PM in the VFC lounge. Bryan Webster, COPA’s western representative will take the reins in President Rob Shemilt’s absence, and give a presentation on ForeFlight. Most of us seem to be using ForeFlight Mobile for flight planning, charts, weather, airport information and more. It’s an amazing system. Don’t

miss this chance to hone up and bone up on the modern way to plan your flights.

Come along to the VFC lounge, 7:00 PM, July 7th for this informative get-together. You don’t need to be a member of COPA to take it in. For more information, contact [email protected].

Feature Article

We are very lucky at the Victoria Flying Club in that we have plenty of opportunity for skill development and growth. There are no shortage of wise men and women around here.

The way I operate is that if I am looking for opportunity then I will find it; if I cannot find it then I create it. I’ve written about mentorship and finding opportunities to seek out mentorship previously in my blog and in The Patrician, but my journey over the last year and a bit was met with some unexpected challenges that had me seeking additional learning opportunities. This culminated in my application and acceptance in a Mentorship Program by the Aviation Leadership Foundation and the BC Aviation Council. (For the all the juice about getting there see Red Boot Lady’s Blog post: http://www.iamthered-bootlady.blogspot.ca/2014/11/light-in-dark-places.html)

Last year as the new President of VFC, it was important to me to get out into the greater aviation com-munity so that I could learn every-thing I could about how this world works and to refine my leadership skills in order to focus them in providing you with what you needed here.

The ALF and BCAC’s mentorship program is based on the idea of a mentorship triad that breaks out of the traditional concept of mentoring and deliberately resists hierarchy. In a triad everyone is “both student and teacher, expert and apprentice” (Margaret Wheatley, 2007). The Aviation Leadership Foundation’s core vision is that there is “A Leader in Every Chair” and the triad con-

cept is about inclusivity and collab-orative learning.

My “community leader” mentor is hometown boy, Glenn Oerzen, who earned a science degree in physics from UVIC. During his 12 year Air Force Career he flew the CT-114 Tutor as an instructor, standard pilot and Lead Solo for the Snowbirds in 1991/92. He flew the CC-130 Hercules in strategic airlift and Arc-tic search and rescue. He joined Air Canada in 1996 as a pilot and was Flight Operations Manager and Chief Pilot for 8 years until recently leaving his position in the office and is now, once again, enjoying flying the line full time. He is also one of the advisors for BCIT’s Aeronautics Program.

My “youth leader” mentor is Rina So who is from Korea and has a BA in linguistics from UBC and graduated from the Airport Opera-tions program at BCIT this year. She enjoyed two practicums in the safety department at Pacific Coast-

al Airlines and in the Emergency Planning department at Vancouver Airport Authority. She now works for one of the International airlines at YVR.

Then there’s me. In the triad I’m the “emerging leader”. I’m not saying they got the short end of the stick but I sure didn’t.

Together we attended mentorship sessions, a leadership learning se-ries and the annual Aviation Lead-ership Forum; and we had some fun together too! Who am I kid-ding? It was all fun!) What I want to brag about here is the fun part.

At the end of May, Glenn took our triad through Air Canada’s base at YVR. We toured the Flight Opera-tions Center and got the skinny on what happens when you show up for work as a pilot for Air Canada. We reviewed a flight plan of a London-bound flight out of Vancou-ver. It felt like it was about a thou-sand pages but it might have been something like 26 pages. That my friends, is quite a weight and balance. I was fascinated by the various forecasting tools and

(other weather information including a plan for following the jet stream that is the air current that’s several thousand miles wide and several thousand miles long found almost seven miles up in the atmosphere where the troposphere meets the stratosphere at the point called the tropopause. While I’m sure I learned all about that in Meteorol-ogy, I have never had to consider that while preparing my flight plan in one of our 172s.

We toured the crew training center where we also met someone from Glenn’s triad from the previous year who has been accepted into the Air Canada Rouge crew training pro-gram. She is a student pilot, soon to be flight attendant and an active member with the ALF. The crew training center has a simulator for everything: rows of heads for per-fecting how to put on that oxygen mask; each type of door found on the five different models of planes that Air Canada flies; two different models of life rafts; and all the other standard and safety equipment you can think of. The training center was huge - warehouses, hangars and classrooms forever. There is so much to learn there and even after their long, long day of training the trainers took the time to speak with us. And without telling too much about my top-secret-world, did you know that there is an Air Canada Flight Attendant Barbie? You can buy it at the gift shop there.

I may or may not have gotten lost in the maintenance hangar because it was so gigantic. Unfortunately,

there wasn’t much going on be-cause they do most of the regularly scheduled maintenance at night.

Although it was all my favourite part, then came my favourite part: the flight simulators! Simulator training is intense at Air Canada and progresses from wooden simulators, to multi-screen simula-tors like the CAE Simfinity, and then onto the full flight simulators. The training center at YVR has five different full flight simulators includ-ing (but not limited to): the Airbus A330; 767; a 737 that Air Canada no longer uses but other airlines do; and the brand spanking new Bom-bardier Dash-8 SIM.

I had the privilege of flying the left seat of the Airbus A330 out of Toronto on a dark snowy night. I’m not going to lie to you, of course I did the whole “this is your Captain

speaking” speech before take off! Who do you think is writing this story?

There was so much to take in at the Vancouver base. They even have a daycare on site for YVR employ-ees called Little Wings Daycare that began as a Maintenance and Engineering initiative in 1991.

I know that none of this unusual and fantastic opportunity would have found me if it was not for the mentorship program that I am participating in. You may know that Victoria Flying Club also has a mentorship program. I would invite you to join us in the final develop-ment and refining of that program so that we may offer it to you and all of our members, not just as another opportunity for skill devel-opment and growth, but also as an opportunity to have some fun!

Above: Ramona and Rena departing YYZ in the snow at night in the Airbus A330 - because we’re that awesome!

If you are interested in developing, refining or participating in our mentorship program

we’d sure love to hear from you. Please feel free to drop me an email:

Conflict - There Is A Silver LiningTracey Burns, Executive Coaching and Consulting

Editor’s Note: For those of us working towards a career in aviation, this latest article from Tracey Burns is going to help you navigate the industry successfully. For the rest of us, this is just great information for any group setting or work place! Thanks Tracey! - CH

“If I were to summarize in one sentence the single most important principle I have learned in the field of interpersonal relations, it would be this: Seek first to understand, then to be understood. This principle is the key to effective interpersonal communication.” – Stephen Covey

It is safe to say that no matter how effective a group of people are at communicating, conflict will occur, it’s natural and it likely will be uncomfortable. We all deal with conflict differently and have different ways of coping. Some of us are more skilled at dealing with it than others. This in itself is not a negative thing. It just is.

Although conflict in the workplace is inevitable there are contributing factors that can increase the likelihood of conflict.

1. Lack of resources;

2. Unclear job descriptions or roles;

3. Organizational transitions, mergers, acquisitions, layoffs;

4. Unpredictable leadership.

When there is a lack of resources, whether it be financial, manpower, tools and/or equipment it is increasingly important to communicate with staff and to be proactively looking for solutions. Long term, a lack of resources diminishes the health of your employees and contributes to stress and burnout.

Ensure that you operate with clear job descriptions and

definitions of roles. People are able to operate at their optimum when there is structure and clarity. Providing this ensures that there are no dropped balls and tasks and responsibilities are not left up to interpretation.

Organizational transitions, mergers, acquisitions and layoffs are unpredictable situations. When there is unpredictability, there is heightened fear. Fear in turn creates speculation, interpretation and rumours. In these situations it is imperative that communication throughout the organization be frequent, cohesive across all departments and provide clear answers whenever possible.

Unpredictable leadership creates uncertainty in employees. Unable to trust their leader’s ability to handle a situation employees quickly lose faith. Leaders need to efficiently address the gaps in their leadership especially when the gaps impact their relationship with those they lead. Learning to resolve conflict is an important part of leadership. Unresolved conflict builds upon itself creating larger more complicated situations. This kind of conflict has repercussions, great people leave. Cooperation and collaboration exits the organization.


Feature ArticleWhile it is important to minimize factors that contribute to increasing conflict it is equally important to accept that conflict actually has a silver lining. Differing opinions are usually not the source of negativity, the more likely culprit is our reaction to these differences. When we learn to accept difference and to understand objectively others’ viewpoints we create the opportunity to hear how others

might approach a challenge or obstacle differently. With the right attitude, conflict can be a healthy experience. Rules of conduct or engagement will help create a safe structure so that all parties are heard and all opinions are valued. Within the safety of this structure, employees are then able to utilize conflict with the intention of stimulating innovation, learning and collaboration.

“Whenever you are in conflict with someone, there is one fact that can make the difference between damaging your relationship and deepening it. That factor is attitude.” – William James

What does this mean to you?The staff of the Victoria Flying Club strive to provide Þrst class service to club members. With accurate information at hand, each employee can take the most effective action - both individually and as part of a team - ensuring aircraft are in position, promptly serviced and ready to go.

Everyone is reminded to watch for hazards on the ramp and to use mobile devices only after ensuring there is no compromise to safety. With that in mind, youÕll see ramp staff responding to fuel requests, checking the status of the ßeet, planning their time, and recording fuel and oil additions by referring to FleetCaptainÕs ramp interface. Detailed information can be seen at a glance - which aircraft are dispatched and when each is due back, estimated return fuel, maintenance status etc. After adding fuel or oil, the action is recorded with a few taps. The dispatcher doesnÕt need to be advised because FleetCaptain will automatically consider the new fuel quantity when selecting the optimum aircraft for the next pilotÕs mission. Oil consumption records are formed and reports generated for each engine.

The operational control interface allows instructors and managers to keep tabs on who has what plane, where they are, what the pilot has planned and when they are expected to return.
