Historic Mail Flight


Recommended Posts

Two weeks ago there was an article in our newspaper, featuring Corilair´s "Historic Mail Flights" between the Discovery Islands. Beautiful pictures surprising me at Sundays breakfast, with a Cessna 185 and the obvious Beaver. I just HAD to go there and follow the described route.

Great screenshots, looks like a fun route to fly in that seaplane.

It is, with a number of hard-to-spot seaplane bases.

 

Very pretty shots Gerold. :)

 

Interesting tour you've taken us on there, Gerold!

Thanks for sharing these pics.
