The Yukon experience

[Pugilist2 878]

Excellent set of shots!  Really enjoy seeing the an-2 in such beautiful terrain.

We depart from a small unpaved strip in Breaburn (CEK2) and head west towards the Kluane Nat. Park. We actually fly a southwesterly course in order to get to see more of the Kluane Park and its majestic mountain range. Before landing in Burwash we fly along the Kluane Lake. It should give us decent opportunities for some photo-shooting.

 

No worries, we won’t take the car, although such a trip would be interesting too

 

The Breaburn airstrip is located right next to the Klondike Hwy

 

 

Nope, no fire this time

 

 

 

 

 

 

We’ll soon reach the eastern part of the Kluane Park

 

 

 

Above the Kluane Lake

 

 

 

We are about to clear for landing

 

 

 

 

The next trip will lead us into the park.

 

Thanks for viewing

How do you post such large pictures? Mine are always small when I use Photobucket.

Hi Pete,

 

can't you enlarge your photos in Photobucket? I use among others "postimage", which allows me to resize my photos

I'm surprised you like it.. it's about as fast as a J3 Cub, lol.

Thanks for the posting tip! If you are looking for a great plane try this Australian CAC Winjeel. Its only $25 Australian. Thats about US$20  http://www.flightsimstore.com/product_info.php?products_id=3917

I think it's a bit faster...  90-100 kias....  but maybe I'm pushing it too much.  The cub does about 50-60 if I remember?

 

I bought it because I saw some amazing paints for it AND it has some serious character.  And the metric stuff is really throwing me off making for a challenge.

 

This happened on my first landing LOL (not to hijack this lovely thread!)
