Chunk Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 Part 2 - From Rogue Valley International - Medford Airport (KMFR) to Tacoma Narrows (KTIW) Holding short at the KMFR active. It's going to be an IFR day. Up at 6500', and out of the muck. However, the turbulence is going to make me lose the chicken fried steak from this morning... And up to 9500', above a blanket of white, and no bumping around. There are a few breaks in the clouds as we head north through Oregon. The sun, the moon, and the star of the show. It finally clears up a little, and we're directly over downtown Portland. The Columbia River in all of its majesty. There's a sight I'll never tire of looking at, Mt. Rainier. And you can barely make out Mt. St. Helens, covered in clouds. Descending back into the muck. I'll check in on the other side. Out of it and headed towards Vashon Island. There's Gig Harbor. I think I can see my house from here. The Port of Tacoma off to our left. On final at KTIW. Finally parked and chocked up. Time for a beer, or four or five, at the Hub airport restaurant. Thanks for flying along with me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wain71 Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 great shots, is that the A2A version? still on the fence with that if it is.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chunk Posted January 5, 2019 Author Share Posted January 5, 2019 Yes, the A2A version. IMHO, it is the best that A2A has ever put out and I would recommended it to anyone. You will not be disappointed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
