Looking forward to it, Gents.  Is last week's advice to bring a STOL aircraft still valid?  What kind is recommended in any case?

stew,

 looking @ the flight plan there is only one airstrip that is tricky, therefore the choice of aircraft is yours.

 stol or otherwise.

roger.

[StewartH 66]

Thanks, Roger.  Think I'll bring the Kodiak this time around.

Isn't great to have your own personal poster on the staff?

[Bert Pieke 7,584]

I've had my Bonanza in service... adjusted the toe brakes...  :wink:

[StewartH 66]

Umm...this flight plan appears to start at Wynyard and ends up at Interlaken, not the other way around.

 

Stew

[Bert Pieke 7,584]

I am planning to start at YWYY, where we ended up last week.. :smile:

[StewartH 66]

Me, too.  I'll start where everyone else is, for that matter.

That one airstrip is *very* short, btw.

And flying the Duke B60 V2.  Black and Gold.

[Ron Attwood 3,464]

Where do we get the paint Bryan?

[StewartH 66]

Nope.  That's why I'm gonna fly the Kodiak.  Don't want to end up in the trees like last week!
