Glad to be up here...




Because the wind is howling down there! As you can imagine by the photo, that snow is moving pretty quick. We were well above here and comfy, but for such a nice day above it looked quite miserable below us.

Formations in the Tundra



This set of geographic formations is south-east of Tanana, and north-west of Nenana. Alaska has many square miles and changes form so many times. I never tire of looking out the window.

Not Often...



Not often is there an opportunity to take a photo of another DC6 out on the job.  So when it does happen there is usually one lucky fella with a camera handy.  This time it was not Kenny but he is the one flying the plane in these photos.  From the left seat might I add.

Photos complements of another flight crew member who wants to remain anonymous.

Not doctored or photo-shopped! Just in the right place at the right time.
Have a great weekend!

Mt. McKinley



Top picture is Mt. Foraker on left at 17,400 ft., and Mt McKinley on the right at 20,320 ft. The lower picture is Mt McKinley alone, and clearly shows both of its peaks. The south and north peaks are collectively known as the Churchill Peaks.

Lucky Me



Do I ever wish I had been a shop-teacher? Yeah, some days I do. But then I have days like this and think 'How lucky am I, to be doing a job as cool as this?'

Returning from Dutch Harbor


What a lineup!


I think this is Mt Veniaminof again. I know what you are wondering...is that steam? Yes, yes it is. Pretty good view from the top of the world...

Here We Go...


First off, a big Thank You to my number one fan for getting me back to my post!

 If memory and my handy charts agree, this is Mt Veniaminof, on the Aleutian chain. We did a recent trip to Dutch Harbor (a.k.a. - Unalaska) When the weather is nice I get to take these sweet photos!
