Matthew Kane Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 I am liking this daily sale from IRIS. I get to fly a new plane everyday. For this one I flew from Springbank Airport, Calgary to Felts Airport, Spokane. This time only cruising at 125 knots (Slow compared to those other IRIS jets). The glass cockpit is perfect for these types of flights.

ricky76 Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 Great shots! I may have to try this flight as well. As a matter of fact I'm just going to do that right now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Kane Posted December 12, 2010 Author Share Posted December 12, 2010 Enjoy the flight. I've done the road trip from Calgary down to Spokane in the real world and it is an awesome area around Spokane. Very arid and a lot of ranches. We did some horseback riding north of Spokane as well.
