HOT DAM!!
Looks like work is just about done, should have the last item complete in the morning before daylight.
If weather permits, will be headed to PAFA from PANU to meet up with my Bride who is flying into PAFA to ride back with me and Jake the Wonder Dog( wonder what he's going to do next),
Over night @ Pikes and then to CYXY and spend the night BS'ing That BCTundra Bloke.
He has a couple of days off, so if the weather does not work, we'll be headed that way on Monday.

After telling to many lies, we will be off to head towards CYXS, Not sure the route yet, might follow the Casear down, go direct, or head over to CYQH and then down the Trench to CYXS for gas, then 0S7 for customs, then on home to 82WN.
Should have around 12 -13 hrs flight time 1900 miles

Looking forward to warmer temps, Home and Friends!!

Will try and take some pix along the way to share.

Bringin the 210 home.
I called it a few minutes ago, just not going to rush it, weather is doable, but been pushing the finish on this project a bit and now done with it completely, but would have to push like hell to get out of here by 4!!??
Weather is suposed to be better tomorrow anyway, Deb's not getting there until 11pm .
Sure am getting consrvative in my old age?? Not sure I like that, but it's easier! ??#-o

Safe trip home George,

Would love to pop over the hill and say goodbye, but the old girl is in Soldotna for the Winter getting some Mods

Have a safe trip George. If you ever get pushed across to the east side of the rocks you'd have a place to stay if you need one.

Wish we could havehooked up somewhere along the way, was some pretty ugly weather over here along the Yukon while I was here!!
Sounds like we might have a project up a little closer to you I might get on next year?? We will see.

It was a good call to hold up this afternoon, Snowing like hell and can't see to far!!

A1 Hope I do'nt have to come that way, but sure apprciate the offer, Might just have to come visit in the Spring and try out the new grass!!

I hear you George,

Crap weather summed up the whole summer/fall. Sad when 3 sm and 500 overcast is a great flying weather

Have a great trip and hopefully catch up with you next time

Hell, it is!!!! That's a good VFR day. You guys are slowing down in your old age. Just like me.

Gump

Heck, i was already slow. And yes, i was happy to get that the year.

Needless to say, my minimums have slipped a few notches

George saw the 210 picture on Facebook - nice .

Well, it's clear -12 and should be out of here by noon.
Moons out and sun should be up in an couple of hours!!

Yep, same weather here.

Safe trip, say hi to JM for me. Keep your toes warm

Deb was there so was a good day, just a bit of a PITA in the middle.
Have to fill up the 5056 resivour today as when I left my ol 210 turned into a 182, so took another 30 minutse for the flight!!
With good Luck, will be off for Whitehorse today.

Well so much for Whitehorse, it went from kinda ok to crap, 2 miles, 500' snow showers and would have been dark.
SSOOOOOOOOOO we stopped at TOK, 40 mile air had a hangar and Fast Eddies is an easy walk., No Spot today as it was tofar in the back to grab when I thought about it.
