Meet up with several BCPers in Lodi for breakfast and we were off.

Landed at some great spots and then made it home by 2pm. Good times!

Heavy smoke this am in the Sierra's


On our way

A quick little stop here



Shoe shine?


Playground...endless gravel bars and beaches from here

Good times for sure! It was a great way to start my birthday.







Find the Wilga in this picture...

Great shots gentlemen!!

Happy birthday Rob!

The sequence is pretty cool Rob... Had know idea it was your birthday man! Nice way to spend the day! Happy belated!

That was a fun approach though. Its fun to go back and re-live it. Thinking about slip down into the river to get down over the trees quickly and then touching down on the water and running it for a bit. Once you have the snags in sight on the bend you add a bit of left rudder to make the big slow left turn and chop the power 15' from the beach to roll out a 100'. Damn....I could do that all day....I guess we did for most of it anyhow.

Sorry Emmet, it was kind of a last minute deal. We need to plan another one of these for late September maybe? It would be cool to bring a grill and some food and have a BBQ on the river after a morning of flying. Did they let you put some bushwheels on the club S-7?

No bush wheels. Just 800's. I put a larger Tailwheel on. but you can go quite a few places in an S7 on 800s!

Great shots, everyone; looks like an awesome way to spend the weekend!

It looks as if Wilgas are becoming more popular with the BCP crowd; how are they to fly?

Thanks!
