Re: Mountain Flying w/Dick Williams by ID Dept of Aeronautics

As they land at Chamberlain Basin they taxi by a group of airplanes that includes my dad's 54 180 and our good friends 206. I was along on that trip and I was probally about 10 years old. That makes this video aproximately 20 years old. We still make a couple trips into the Frank Church each year and my dad and our friend still have the same airplanes as seen in the video. The video is not real clear but it jumped out at me at first glance. Anybody know what year that video was shot?

Cool.
The copyright date is 1992, but could have been shot earlier I suppose.

I didn't catch any reference to GPS and did hear Loran and VOR so it is old.

It's amazing how much of the country in the video is now burned up by wild fires.
