| I'm flying in a Pilatus from Dutch Harbor, Alaska, to Cold Bay. I just have to brag aboot how beautiful it is! I'm at 4,700 doing about 230 kias. Just passed a snowy island and am about 40 nm (9 mins) away from landing. Wish me luck, and try this flight sometime: AK23 to PACS (do it at low altitude, like under 5,000 ft) |

| Now I'm flying from 28AK to Z55. I'll post when I'm in the air and can see more than a mountain smack in front of me. |

| Aight, I'm at 8000 ft, which feels more like 4000 because of a really high altitude on the ground. Anyway, this is also a neat flight. I'll post when on the ground. tu - ugh- urbulance! |
