Where did you fly today?

Litecub · Dec 30, 2020

Sun rise and moon set over Denali yesterday while going to my cabin near Skwetna, AK. An amazing light show on a grand scale.

Litecub · Dec 30, 2020

The reason for the trip was to dig the cabin out.

That does not look like fun shoveling...

Ha, I did not mention the 22 steps going up the bank from the lake, now that was work!

It was still only 10 degrees on the return trip home this afternoon.
This was a flight from Cortez Colorado to GrandJunction and back. The red rock area is close to Paradox Colorado. The higher mountains are those around Telluride.

Transmitted from my FlightPhone on fingers...

I had to look up the Utah Tree. I'd never heard of it!

I remember that view well. Except the flight line looks different. In the 80s the last row were neglected Taylorcrafts and sad-looking Cessnas.

Ditto.
I figured it was some sort of radar or microwave installation.
So it's a sculpture......
or maybe that's just what they want you to think.....

Ice road landings today. it was in the 40's above the layer with a light south breeze.

Approach:

aeroaddict · Jan 3, 2021

I would like to ask, since never have landed on ice roads; how is directional stability after you loose rudder authority on landing and again on take off before the rudder kicks in?

Schwarz · Jan 3, 2021

Northern Minnesota, might need some skis.

That question, like snow, depends on the ice conditions. But for the vast majority of the time, it's pretty much a non-issue if you take into account wind speed/direction.

If it's slick ice like below, doing power slide takeoffs is a blast!

I have intentionally tried to ground loop on bare clear ice. Not happening, unless the main tires find something rough like a patch of snow to grab.

aeroaddict · Jan 4, 2021

Thanks. Actually that sounds like fun!

G44 · Jan 4, 2021

Glare ice flying is fun. Now add 2-3 inches of cold light fluffy snow on top and that doubles the fun! Safe crack free ice of course.

BC12D-4-85 · Jan 4, 2021

Land into any wind on ice. Tires will give some sideways but a ski skeg can grab a hard rough spot and try to twist the gear even going straight ahead.

Did not really go anywhere, just a few trips around the pattern at KHCR testing out some different approach descent/angles

Flying with Joe and his new PA-12 this afternoon. 20 deg, light breeze, not a bump in the sky...

Bayou Navigator · Jan 29, 2021

41 degrees today. Had to wear a sweater in the plane.

Steve Pierce · Jan 30, 2021

Nowhere in particular, usual bar hopping haunts, just had to get in the air. Way to much drama lately. Dogs had fun except for the huge stickers I had to pick out of their fur.
