I finally got to make the flight into Mackay Bar with my friends Benny and Keith. Mackay Bar is a beautiful place situated on the bank of the Salmon River. It is not the easiest strip, where I have landed, to get into. I took a little video of out trip and I am posting it here. Bob

Nice video, Bob. I always like the cockpit conversion piped into the recording.
I'm sure ChrisG will want a copy of that approach for shortfield.com if he doesn't already have a video of Mackay.

It is too big I will have to reload it somehow and make it shorter.
