More Alaskan Fun
Posted: Sat Apr 29, 2006 2:55 pmThe final hop of the day in my new ride, Junea Intl to Bear Camp.
Seeing as this was my last hop tonight, some of the pictures may be a tad dark on some monitors, but hey, thats nature for ya, I can't stop the sun going down - not at 140kias anyway
Just as we left Juneau, heading home for the night, the weather had just started to close in:
Time to press on, before this develops into more 'sinister' weather:
Well the weather hasn't developed into much, but is sure is getting dark quick:
We still have to be wary of the clouds though - don't want to run into a 'granite cumulus':
Wow, this VC looks even better at night
On top of the hill in front of us you can see Bear Camp. Although we have an 8kt wind at our 5 O'clock, I decide to fly left downwind rather than straight in:
Downwind leg:
Yet another 'late' touchdown - this little Cessna has been catching me out all day for some reason:
Miller Time:
Cheers,
TSC.

Is that a BFU airport? I just downloaded the BFU Quebec base.
