[Aharon 608]

Shalom and greetings all my pals,

Presenting exciting regular scheduled Reeve airline service from PADL Dillingham Airport located two nautical miles  west of the central business district of Dillingham in Alaska to PANC Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport located 5 miles southwest of downtown Anchorage.

Very excited passengers boarding Reeve Airline DC-4 featuring well polished/buffed masterpiece livery work painted and polished exclusively by repainter named Hartmut Hekmann who is the official repainter for Virtual Aircraft Restoration Facebook group owned and operated by Hartmut Hekmann and Tobias Krause.

Time for preflight inspection!!  Check out super shiny and well polished engines!!

Checking right wing to be sure there is no ice or snow build up  CHECK OUT reflection of clouds on metallic shiny wing!

Checking left wing for same reason  WHOA I can see cloud reflection on the wing!

Checking right engines

Checking left engines   Dont you love shine?

Checking wheels  you will need lobster bib to catch your drooling from seeing shine on engines!

Checking wheels

Checking to be sure flaps are set properly

Checking propeller blades to be sure there are no ice  WHOA WHOA  look at cloud reflection on propeller blades

Checking right propeller blades for same reason  WHOA WHOA I can see reflection of mountains on engine cover

Checking front wheel

Checking tail

Cannot help admiring metallic shine

Got to activate all de-ice buttons!!   I do NOT know what the pump button for alcohol is for!!

Starting left engines resulting into mind blowing exciting and massive engine start smoke

Starting right engines producing massive engine start smoke that is blown forward by powerful winter winds

Engines are ready for action!!! But wait  I need to spool up engines for few seconds to be sure they are ready for action in bitter freezing winter weather

Starting to taxi to short of runway 1 to start exciting flight!

Making sure the route waypoints are ready to avoid high mountains due to the fact there is no weather radar and no terrain warning computer meaning I must avoid mountains covered by clouds.

Here are waypoints: KOWOK PIPPR NUTUW WALUS AMOTT WEWWO ICICL BOB that will enable my plane to avoid running into mountains as seen on this map showing my specific flight path

Entering into runway 1 for more taxi and backtrack

Nice plane, a pity that is can only be obtained by joining Facebook. I am not a member of FB nor do I wish to be one.

Surely there is another link to download a copy without the Join Facebook mandate. Why is it only available at FB?
