December 31, 201213 yr Back to Hawaii for another waterfall hunt. This one should be very interesting. Enjoy. Thank you. Rick $Silver Donor EAA 1317610 I7-7700K @ 4.5ghz, MSI Z270 Gaming MB, 32gb 3200, Geforce RTX2080 Super O/C, 28" Samsung 4k Monitor, Various SSD, HD, and peripherals
December 31, 201213 yr This was a fun one Rick. It took me awhile to find that "little" Upper Paauilo airstrip again. I was so low on fuel (2%) that I had to pull my two jerry cans out of the back seat and refuel before takeoff. Great to be back in Hawaii though! I will take a couple local jobs I think. Happy new Year all Steve
December 31, 201213 yr Author I flew this one from Hilo Intl. It was great to fly along the coast low and slow in the CC. Took me a while to get to the aerocache, and when the marker popped up, it surprised me. It wasn't at all what I expected. Also, if the target area hadn't been as large as it was, I'm sure this would have been one of those land and walk caches. I enjoyed this entire search and collect. I agree, it's good to have a mix of Hawaii and Alaska caches. Since I usually try to keep the date in Alaska true to life, it gets a little boring will all the white. I have to come to Hawaii for a color fix. :lol: Thank you.

December 31, 201213 yr Like Rick, I love to have color, lots of color in my life. So, why not take my newly-painted RV out for a spin? I call this my "Tropical Carnaval" livery, because the pattern is taken from a Carnaval suit. Yes, we do like color in the Tropics. And like Steve, I love those little strips North of Hilo, so here is the RV on the dirt ready for take-off. I took the RV so I could fly inverted, but when I get a chance, I shall try to add an inverted carb to the Cub - that should make it aerobatic! :lol: Aerocache in sight, gear straight up in the air! B) Got to live dangerously! Best wishes to all for the New Year and keep playing Flight! Luis Hot, humid Caribbean paradise!
January 1, 201313 yr It took me awhile to find that "little" Upper Paauilo airstrip again. Amen! I bagged it and went elsewhere. Come to think of it, I think the only times I've landed at Upper P is when it sported a destination diamond.
