It shouldn't scare you. I just happen to love and miss Canada a lot. I should have just stayed when I had the chance. Also, the German Luftwaffe goes to Goose Bay every year to practice low level flying, and since as a kid I wanted to grow up be a chopper pilot like T.C. in Magnum, and my only way to get there was military aviation because I couldn't have afforded civilian training, it was inevitable that I'd learn of Goose Bay. Too bad that I am not medically suited to fly airplanes or I could have brought home my own cormorants =)
