PATRON
Asotin County Washington (KLWS)
Opposite side of the thermal, eye ball to eye ball, working the core together. It's magic and something few power pilots will ever experience.
Long ago I flew formation with a bald eagle in a Tomahawk. I was catching ridge lift over the Bridger Mountains near Bozeman--throttled back to idle and slowly climbing. 20 feet off the left wing I saw a bald eagle doing the same thing. we flew side by side for a coupled of minutes. He even looked at me and, I almost think, nodded....
One of my high point memories.
