About More Than Wings

More Than Wings is a short documentary series that explores the beauty and wonder of flight in BC through the eyes of pilots who believe in the true spirit of aviation.
 
Soaring on metal wings, exploring the far reaches of the open sky, pilots live with a love for flight that is core to their being. This documentary series will explore that passion, and the true spirit behind the world of aviation.  The pilot episode will act as a portal into the community of aviation in BC, exploring the landscape as we fly across the province, seeking stories that inspire the passion to fly. This road will ultimately lead to Kelowna BC, for the launch of Give Hope Wings, a 20’000 mile flight circumnavigating central and south America to raise funds for Hope Air, a national charity that arranges free flights for Canadians in need of health care far from home. This event sets off the series, with the spirit of aviation as an anchor for every story told.
 
To help make this project happen, we are pitching for a 10K grant from Telus Storyhive, as a part of this year’s web series edition.

Storyhive is a community-powered funding program for emerging content creators in BC and Alberta.
 
The outcome depends largely on public voting, so we need the support and help of others to make this project a reality.

Voting goes from September 18th to September 23rd.  You can cast a vote every day with one simple click, just follow the link below to the project page.
