reza Posted December 18, 2010 Report Share Posted December 18, 2010 I was looking through "Just Converstion" and saw an item on TransQuebec Helicopters and it got me to thinki ng about Dom-Peg people. I wonder is anyone knows names and what these folks are doing now. I'll throw out a few names to start with--John Rowe, John Gould, Buck Spears, and Randy Brading. Anyone else with some names and whereabouts. I started with them in the early seventies. i hope so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wally Posted October 13, 2021 Report Share Posted October 13, 2021 Can anyone here tell me with any certainty if the Dominion-Pegasus Expo '67 helicopter service operated on a schedule at any time or was it purely on-demand for the whole six months it operated?
