I spotted this while still in Idaho, on the way to Kalispell the other day. Saved in the GPS, for when the skis are back on! Also this pretty smooth looking ( right....) ridge top in the same neighborhood.

sorry Ive disappeared of late! Ive been flat out with work and and with the free time I have had Ive been trying to get an Aussie bush flying group together but I have been doing a bit of flying. Have just taken the Storch up north to Rockhampton in Queensland for the Old station fly in. While up there I met with a fellow who runs a major aviation magazine over here who said he wanted to do a professional photo shoot and a story about the plane for his magazine. I said its a bush plane, instead of doing it here, lets head out the back and do some bush flying! here's a couple of the photos his sent so far!

Great lookin' Highlander! You taking that to Idaho in a couple weeks???

We will see about Idaho. More than likely the 180 but who knows. Spent some quality time in the new Highlander this morning with my buddy and his SQ.

Found Doug giving some rides last night:

Wow. Beautiful BRD.

My wife's instructor just texted me a fuzzy picture of her first solo this morning!

And why were you not there???

I wished I could have been! But somebody was much happier knowing I wasn't there watching.

I was coming from thisaway, and going thataway, and decided to land and give it a few minutes to clear a bit, or not. 20 minutes later it looked a lot better and I flew on.

Came from this direction:



Was going this way:


Being able to land off airport sure can add a safety margin if and when needed, that's why I call it "recurrent safety training", seriously.

Headed out to pump station for a spot of fishing and breakfast this morning, didn't catch a thing but the tea was hot so going by my fishing skills and history....thats not a bad result!

Hit a bunch of strips today...
