Welcome to the Kraemer Aviation\/Flymall.org<\/a> Wheels & Wings Newsletter<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can view past newsletters here<\/a>. This month we’re featuring Inuit transportation as well as other transportation from the extreme North. Also this month: A checkride success stories, model steam engine trains, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Inuit used sleds as well as animal skin covered boats. Other modes of transportation included snowshoes, toboggans, canoes, and sleds. In order to survive, the Inuit needed to be able to travel long distances. Dog sleds were also very popular with the Inuit. With the introduction of the snowmobile in the 1960s, many Northern Canadians became much more mobile and connected (nowadays mobile and connected means that you have a cell phone). In the Arctic, the snowmobile changed the hunting, herding and trapping patterns of the Inuit. The vehicle largely replaced the dogsled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

History Trivia:<\/strong> Kayak (the Inuit called this a qajaq) is a long miniature boat. It was invented about 4400 years ago by ancient Greenlandic Inuits, as a piece of hunting equipment. A Qajaq was made of the few available materials \u2013 driftwood, skin, bone, and sinew. Kayaks are most generally associated with seal hunting and whale hunting.

If you enjoy history we have a new aviation history fact each day at the bottom of our webpages<\/a>.  Some days there may be more than one, just refresh the page.  And if you like Beatles history, checkout our Events Calendar<\/a> and select the Beatles category.  This is a work in progress, we’re building the most comprehensive calendar of important dates in Beatle history. For those that like to stick with current news, we have an aviation news ticker on our home page<\/a>.  This is updated daily to show the current aviation news.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Achievements & Special Recognition<\/strong>: Every now and then an applicant comes along that is outstanding in their knowledge and piloting skills.\u00a0 Carmel was one of those applicants.\u00a0 Carmel passed her private pilot checkride earlier in October, less than 1 month after her first lesson.\u00a0 Her first lesson was on September 14 and by October 7 she had her Private Pilot certificate with only 40 hours in her logbook.\u00a0 She flew to Commercial Pilot standards and had Flight Instructor level of knowledge for the subject areas. Here’s a quote from Harry “She performed some of the maneuvers exactly the way I would have with my 10,000 plus hours”. Excellent job Carmel. \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aviation\/Aviators in the news<\/strong>: Veteran pilots of the first World War started to revolutionize travel in the Arctic with the airplane. These pilots could take their planes to places that no boat could reach. Air travel provided year around service to some remote areas since it was not seasonal travel such as dog sleds over frozen lakes. The airplane could cross the lake frozen or not. Pictured here is a Curtiss Jenny<\/a>. The Jenny became the backbone of American postwar\u00a0civil aviation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The aviation section of the Flymall<\/a> is full of aviation news, training info, and much more for the aviator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How about a “barn find” that is 1,000s of years old! In 2016, Italian scientists reported “the oldest snowshoe in the world” discovered in the Dolomites and dated to between 3800 and 3700 B.C. The origin and age of snowshoes are not precisely known, although historians believe they were invented from 4,000 to 6,000 years ago, probably starting in Central Asia. \u2026 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Earlier this month Brian passed his CFII checkride with Harry. He did an excellent job. He did have some added pressure because the FAA was sitting in the back seat for Harry’s annual observation ride. Great job Brian.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Weather in the news<\/strong>: Since we’re highlighting transportation of the Arctic, how about a visit to Cape Dorset<\/a>?

The hottest month of the year at Cape Dorset Airport is July, with an average high of 51\u00b0F and low of 42\u00b0F.

Three Wheel Association (TWA)<\/strong>:\u00a0\u00a0Visit the\u00a0Three Wheel Association<\/a>\u00a0page on the Flymall for more info on the association. Children of the frozen north were most likely playing with toys that mimicked what their parents were using for transportation, like this Sno Wiz. This “trike” configuration sled is part of the TWA museum collection. Called a Sno Wiz <\/a>made by the Frederick Willys Co Inc. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prototypes<\/strong>: In 1935 Joseph Bombardier<\/a> assembled and successfully tested the first snowmobile. It was a vehicle with a sprocket wheel and a track drive system, and it was steered by skis. There were many vehicles before this that used skis, however Joseph’s is considered the first snowmobile.

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Nautical Notes<\/strong>: For water travel, the Inuit used various types of skin covered boats\/Qajaqs such as pictured below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Umiaks were also very popular with the Inuit. A umiak is an open boat made of animal hide stretched over a wooden frame. Some of these were large enough to hold about 20 people.  The University of Alaska Museum has remains of an umiak that is estimated to be 1,000 years old. By the 20th century, outboard motors were used on umiaks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Animals in the headlines<\/strong>: The work dog of the Arctic is the Husky and other types pulling dogs. The Northern Inuit Dog, along with its offshoot breed lines the Tamaskan dog, the British Timber dog and the Utonagan, is a breed of dog developed from a 1980s breeding project in the United Kingdom with the objective of producing a dog breed that resembles wolves. Harry & Pat’s dog Jett is a Tamaskan<\/a>. Here’s Jett’s handmade dog sled<\/a> that she is learning to pull.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
