Hi Gang:
My MKIII looks right at home, knee deep in fire weed in front of Worthington
Glacier, a little bit north of Valdez, Alaska, during my 2004 flight to the
Far North. Miss P'fer has been a terrific little airplane. This was her
third flight to America's northernmost State.

That is a great picture John, my wife says the flowers even match the color of your plane !
In the past, I have looked at all the pictures from your trips. Have you posted pictures of your recent trips anywhere on the web ?

Ralph B:
I screwed up, Ralph. I had a max load. Did not think about it until I had
already topped off the fuel tank at Barrow when I landed on my flight from
the Helmericks at Colville Island, 165 miles east.
Getting out there was no problem. The beach was the only place to land and
hopefully take off again. I had 150 lbs of fuel, all my gear, and a full
belly, when I landed on the beach. Took a while to make the decision to
land, but I had not flown all that way not to visit the site. The MKIII did
a great job of landing and taking off. Needless to say, there was no
taxiing involved. I started my takeoff roll from where the aircraft stopped
on landing, which was very short. The sand was very soft and had a lot of
basket ball size rocks mixed in with it. I also had my fingers crossed.
