Kahiltna climbers' camp landing

Note to photographers and video shooters: Always ask if you can open the scratched, snot-smeared cockpit window on the Otter, or you'll get that snot in your final product. 8)

If my wife would pay me enough to divorce her, I would own a Turbine Powered Single Otter!

Re: Kahiltna climbers' camp landing

Nice panel on that Otter, light grey, all modern gauges, and best of all the 530 in front of the pilot where it should be instead of away in some radio stack. Who did the rebuild?

Easy day, I'm sure it can get lots worse up there in weather and wind.

Re: Kahiltna climbers' camp landing

New panel is part of the turbine conversion I think. Ive been in the Walter, Prat and the garret and they all had similar looking modern panels anyway.
