47G Posted December 21, 2007 Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 Gerry MacArthur operated GEM Air with a 206 from his base on the Red River north of Winnipeg. He sold his license to the big guy from the East probably 1975 or thereabouts. That must have been when C-FGEM went into the water. Richie R bought the wreck and in 1977 it was flying at Shirley Helicopters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gov Posted December 21, 2007 Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 That must have been when C-FGEM went into the water. Richie R bought the wreck and in 1977 it was flying at Shirley Helicopters. According to my logbook it was C-GGEM that GEM AIR operated. I flew for him for a week slinging steel across the river at Longspruce in Oct 75.

Cambox Posted December 22, 2007 Report Share Posted December 22, 2007 That sounds about the same time we were working in that area moving tower horns for Comstock with an Alouette II. We probably crossed paths............ R... According to my logbook it was C-GGEM that GEM AIR operated. I flew for him for a week slinging steel across the river at Longspruce in Oct 75.

Radio Man Posted January 3, 2008 Report Share Posted January 3, 2008 Since we are posting previous employer logos...... here's one from the past Back in my OHL days in the Vancouver head-shed, I picked up a rumour about our Ops V-P and Quasar Heli. I went to see him to find out if it was true. Than was the first time I saw Dan Dunn startled and at a loss for words. He left OHL at the end of the day and began active work with Quasar the next day. Quasar.rtf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
