Default Canadians Go Visiting.

I ran into three Canadian crews who arrived at Amarillo when I did,
yesterday.
Dark blue two seat turboprops. I said they looked far from home.
One explained: "We get a five day Easter vacation, and we had the use
of these training planes." "We're from Saskatchewan".
So we compared notes after taking the side-trip to Palo Duro Canyon
("Second biggest in the US" it says here) "They let us in for free."

Tacair, the FBO at KAMA with the English Field House restaurant next
door, make a car available for crews - which is nice.
When I departed, there was yet another Canadian plane on the line, a
dark blue jet trainer - nice lines, didn't recognize the maker.
