Flew under the bridge and still made the landing at Russian Mission airfield. The co-pilot cried like a baby when I made a slight heading change to duck under the the bridge on final

I did that too!

 

 

 

 

 

 

The only problem is there is no bridge at the real Russian Mission! :LMAO:

[cite=url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E._L._Patton_Yukon_River_Bridge" name="Wikipedia" date="06/16/2012&quot]The E. L. Patton Yukon River Bridge is a girder bridge spanning the Yukon River in Yukon–Koyukuk, Alaska. The bridge carries both the Dalton Highway and the Alaska Pipeline in connecting Fairbanks with Deadhorse near the Arctic Ocean and the Prudhoe Bay Oil Field. Upon completion, the E. L. Patton Yukon River Bridge became the first permanent bridge crossing of the Yukon River completed in Alaska,[6] and remains as the only bridge crossing of the Yukon in Alaska today.[/cite]

Thanks for the screenshots and a great suggestion for my next flight. I can never pass up a good bridge.
