Flying a Gooney Bird in Canada’s North: A Bush Pilot’s Adventures ✈️
For over 40 years, Dorrin Wallace flew the rugged skies of Canada’s North — piloting the legendary Douglas DC-3 “Gooney Bird” on wheels, skis, and floats, carrying everything from passengers to fish. His stories capture a time when pilot training was rare, regulations were loose, and survival often depended on instinct, grit, and the wisdom of veteran bush pilots.
Now, alongside co-author Deana J. Driver, Dorrin brings these adventures to life in Flying a Gooney Bird in Canada’s North.
