Trying out Tongass.

[olderndirt]

Finally sprung for Holger and Bill's "Tongass Fjords" so here's my first solo.

Just off 29 at Sitka headed for Angoon.



Making good time but about get "unsure of my position" - translation, lost.



Sitting up here, trying to make what I see look like the map.



Returning to my last known position.

Part of the instructions state that if you don't use their water, you'll wish you had.  It's certainly lively.

No problem Dave...I knew exactly where you were because I recognised that tree....

Used to pull that line when flying over the bush and a passenger would ask how I knew where we were as I did not have a map out and could fly too most camps with my eye's closed....

I would always tell them "I recognised that tree" pointing out the window to nothing but lakes and trees...

You should have seen the looks on some of their faces...

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug
P.S. Makes a fella want to spit when his smart ass kids pull that stunt on him....

They probably got it from a genetic source similar to yours  .
