VH-KDK Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 Fairbanks, as the recent Banking Royal Commission in Australia brought to light, as if we didn't know already. I am going to fly from Anchorage to the town of Fairbanks. 1. Departing PANC, Ted Stevens Anchorage named after the Alaskan US Senator. 2. As well as PANC you can see PAMR Merrill and PAED Elmendorf AFB. 3. Over the Knik Arm with PABV Birchwood, and to the right Eagle River. 4. The Talkeetna Mountains. 5. The Ruth (L) and Brooks (R) Glaciers in the Denali NP. 6. More of the Talkeetna Mountains 7. 8. The Tanana River approaching Fairbanks. 9. Wenrich Island just before landing. 10. At PAFB, just 140 miles south of the Arctic Circle. I hope you enjoyed the flight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
