Work started this week to remove and dispose of the old tired O-300 engine on C-FMVU... New it was rated at 145Hp, but I doubt it was making more than 120Hp; climb, cruise, take-off roll was all affected and lacking. Enter the new Lycoming Engines O-360 rated at 180Hp, with a full firewall forward kit and STC from Air Plains Services, Corp. 3 days into the instal and the new engine is hanging from the firewall, just a couple more working days and we'll fire it up. Full video series coming in January 2027.

GoPro usually suck (as do all action cameras) but the GoPro Mission One is actually a pretty solid, stable camera for use in aviation.

When a GA flight gives you lemons, make lemonade. We never get tied to a travel plan in the plane, we're always ready to pivot and go somewhere else:

Sometimes the end is the end... It's time to retire the tired old Continental O-300 in MVU. Soon to be replaced by Lycoming Engines O-360

Huge Thank You to Everyone who donated to Hope Air this year! YOU our viewers donated $40,000 to the cause - that's money that will change lives over the course of the next year.
The Air Rally that we flew with 15 other aircraft, raised awareness of the gap in our healthcare faced by rural and isolated communities. We held rallies and met with politicians of all stripes from municipal, provincial and federal levels. As well as met with past and current patients to highlight their victories because of your generous donations.
