À propos de l?auteur

Bryan Webster is a 10,000+ hour pilot who has flown over 35 different aircraft types which include everything from hang gliders and Ultra Lights, to almost all Cessna and De Havilland products including the Turbo Beaver Single and Twin Otter. He also flew bird dog for water bombers and medivac plus corporate duties in the Beechcraft 100 and 200 series. To be at home more with his young family he spent 10 years flying single pilot IFR for a large cargo company in Cessna Caravans until the fall of 2001.

After a series of local ditching fatalities Bryan took it upon himself to start an inexpensive egress training program to help better prepare pilots and passengers of light aircraft for what he knew only too well would be a very challenging situation.

Today Bryan lives in Victoria B.C. and teaches underwater egress all across Canada as well yet today flies the De Havilland Beaver commercially in his spare time on the beautiful BC coast.
