#1: December 18th Sunday bush flight Author: Uhu_Rodion, Location: L'Aquila, ItalyPosted: Sat Dec 17, 2011 11:06 am ---- Another short trip across the mountains of British Columbia, with a stop-and-go intermediate landing: be aware that at Vernon you may find the water strip frozen, in which case there's a solid alternative in sight at NE. Final destination sports a very short runway, but it should be more than enough for experienced pilots.
