Some of the VWoC aircraft had a whirl at landing on the ice at Montebello last weekend. It turned out that the pilots determined that the surface wasn't suitable for non-ski-equipped aircraft, but the brilliant-yellow aircraft make a wonderful contrast with the perfect blue of a Canadian winter sky.
