I can do a leg from Ottawa to Halifax. Alternatively I can do Wawa to Ottawa.
@greg.campbell Thanks! Let's see if anyone is able to do MB to Wawa/Ottawa legs

I could do Wawa to Ottawa if we can get someone to do the Winnipeg to Wawa leg.
@stephen.newman Thank you! Let's see if we can get some pilots to do the Winnipeg to Wawa route.

i know others have commented above, but I can fly either Wawa to Ottawa or Ottawa to Halifax
@greg.campbell Thank you Greg! I will be reaching out shortly once I have volunteers to fly the remaining legs.
Thank you to those who have volunteered. We are reaching out to pilots in MB and western ON for the Winnipeg to Wawa leg (or legs depending on aircraft and aircrew capability). I will be in touch once we have the final pieces in place to begin planning the flights.
My plane is going in for the annual till about April 10th or so. After that I could possibly do Winnipeg to Dryden or somewhere in that area.
UPDATE: the rescue agency is exploring options for commercial transport from Winnipeg to Wawa. Once we have details I will contact the pilots who have volunteered and set the plan into motion!
Thank you everyone for your efforts and interest in this flight. Bjorn was able to find ground transportation and will be departing soon for Halifax. There will still be a flight needed for the puppies, but you can volunteer for that in the other thread. Thank you.
