Arnie Schreder

Former Chief Pilot

69 years old

Seasons: 1, 2 & 3

"We all know that the North Atlantic is not a very friendly environment, especially in the winter. Nobody traditionally crosses the North Atlantic with these types of airplanes at that time of year."

A widely respected northern aviator and Buffalo's longtime chief pilot, Arnie retires and becomes one of Buffalo's most revered veterans. Before hanging up his wings, Arnie flies one of the most unique missions Buffalo has ever attempted: a re-enactment of the WWII Dambusters bombing raid. Arnie aces the job with his high-performance flying and precision bombing. It's the perfect farewell for this thrill-seeking old pilot, but is it the last of Arnie at Buffalo Airways? Rumour has it he’s considering one more exhilarating season of CL-215 firefighting.
