These guys were all camped out at the Stevensville airport for two weeks. Looks to me like they were having a blast!

Unbelievably beautiful, Can’t imagine what must’a been like from the seat of that trike.
Never have done a lot of mountain flying....always have wanted to though.

Well thought out camera placement for an unobstructed view. I guess I need to buy better camera equipment...

That's just the beauty of a pusher aircraft.

Re: Bitterroot flight in trike

Probably thread drift, but my frustration is being able to place the camera in an unobstructed view AND being able to turn it on and off for choice shots and battery/memory card conservation on long trips. The one I have can be turned on prior to launch but will be dead before I get to the end of my first leg (with a lot of boring stuff recorded in between). Yeah, yeah, I know; I'm too cheap to get better equipment =P~ but avgas is more fun :D
