ENE of Ketchikan.

Thanks for looking.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

Thanks Doug.

I halfway expected you to fuss at me for not having set the mixture and prop in #1, but I had just leveled off. Grin

Great shots Larry.......that cabin is in a nice spot

I also like the 2nd shot from above the clouds Cool

"Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth and danced the skies on laughter silvered wings. Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun split clouds.....and done a hundred things you have never dreamed of.....wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hovering there, I've chased the shouting wind along and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air.

Up, up the long, delerious, burning blue I've topped the wind swept heights with easy grace where never Lark, nor even Eagle flew. While with silent lifting of mind I've trod the high untrespassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of god"

Thanks Chuck.

I saw a list or a map of all the cabins somewhere but I can't remember where and I can't find it right now.

Edit: Found it. It's a link in the manual.

Thanks for the comments guys.

And thanks for the link Doug, though I will have to read it through a few more times to completely comprehend. My favorite part, is rule #1 & rule #2. Grin
