Shalom and greetings all my pals,

Presenting a typical cargo charter Everts flight from PASV Sparrevohn LRRS Airport located south of Sparrevohn in the Yukon–Koyukuk area of the U.S. state of Alaska to PAAQ Palmer Municipal Airport located 1 mile southeast of the central business district of Palmer in Matanuska-Susitna Borough, Alaska

Starting first of 4 engines at the cargo apron

Because winds required me to use difficult approach to runway 34, I needed to fly past closer to Chugach mountain range where you can see on bottom of screenshot highway number one also known as Glenn Highway
