Wonderful! Thank you!
So you were talking about the airdrops? Boy, they even did "groundpicks" how cool was that?
I thought you were talking about the Nancy Lake Cabins

Just options to think about in future Bush Flying. It was my favorite show when I was a youngster, love the Cessna 310.

Tim,
Thanks for sharing the pirep, but more importantly thanks for the reference to the old Sky King TV show. I, too, loved watching those shows as a kid.
