A buddy came to visit from out east and has never seen the mountains so I thought this would be a perfect opportunity to rent a 180 and go show him the sites!

...

Cresting close to a couple mountain tops!
...

Brought it down low to fly some shore lines and check out some wildlife...
...

While heading back to the airport, I realized that I was WAY to high for the aproach so I thought i would give my buddy something to remember this trip by....steep bank to get on line...
...

Now full flaps to get this bird to slow down and get down safely...
...

Go it down safely...and for some reason...my buddy doesn't want to fly with me anymore!?  Grin ??? Wink

Hi Fozzer...!

I have to agree, there's nothing quite like a nice Beaver.

My mom is even amazed at the tight spots where I can get it and out of using my trusty Beaver 8)
