Skalywag stars in Waterfall Session
Links to general aviation backcountry flying-oriented videos. It can be yours or stuff you find on the internet. Please no airline/military.
This was one of my favorite segments from the last few years, so I made it its own feature.

It might be a while... our extra passenger arrives this month and it's been whirlwind of nesting and house remodeling for the last few months. The poor Bearhawk has been lonely.

Great video! There's nothing as pretty as a polished Skywagon.....and I don't care what the data plate says, that's a skywagon! (so quit calling it a Skylane, Zane!)

Haha...hey just being transparent! But I agree...it's a Skywagon. I just like to note what people could (should?) be doing to their straight tail 182s in hopes they'll be inspired.

Agreed. And I hope EZ gets his STC done soon. That seems like it'll really open up some options in that market.

If it looks smooth, it might be. If it looks rough, it is...www.bigtirepilot.com ...www.alaskaheliski.com
What I like about a crop duster is that he stays in low ground effect as long as possible even if he has a big engine and light load. We never know when we will need that extra free energy.

Heh heh, yeah. I have so much hair I don't even know how to begin to manage it. Those grab handles are great for holding my scrunchies and clips.

I agree, Great vid and one of my favorites! Scalywag has indeed inspired many of us towards our own C181.

My favorite part was Skaly's luscious locks blowing in the breeze.
You should model for Evan.
