Flying My Own Plane To See The 2024 Eclipse
I will once again be flying in the Give Hope Wings fundraiser this year! Our June of 2024 flight will see us stop in many communities in Eastern Canada to raise awareness for this worthy cause.
Last year 2023 we raised over $27,000 towards helping our neighbours - we made a positive difference in the lives of many.

I had a very fluid plan to fly my plane to see the 2024 total solar eclipse... I was planning right up to the last minute, changing my destination based on the forecast cloud cover. I ended up in Sherbrooke Quebec, and had beautiful clear sky. I talk about the camera setup I used to film the eclipse in 6K.
