I know that there will be people that try to estimate the clouds and how close they were... you can't. Especially with this being filmed on GoPros which totally distort distances. The flight here was conducted well within the VFR day rules that govern clouds and visibility.
Join me, Glen, a private pilot and occasional YouTube cook, on a thrilling cross-country expedition in my resto-modded 1961 Cessna 172B. In this series, I fly alongside 16 other aircraft on a couple thousand mile expedition, raising money and awareness for HOPE Air, a charity that provides free flights and accommodations to Canadians in need of healthcare far from home. In Part 4, we kick off our fundraising adventure in Prince Edward Island, enjoying breakfast at a historic local home before flying to Moncton. Experience the challenges and beauty of VFR flight across Canada's stunning East Coast and meet the dedicated volunteer pilots of HOPE Air. Subscribe and hit the bell for more flight adventures! This flight also gives the Pilot's perspective on weather challenges, Navigating VFR and IFR conditions. Cross-country flying adventures
