  1. Juneau International PAJN → Skagway PAGY

    Today I was able to fly in camouflage. The paint job of the Baron matched some of the landscape along the way exactly ;-) (see the third image)

    There wasn't much room for the approach in Skagway: I had to fly into the rather narrow valley and make a 180-degree turn there in order to land on Runway 20.

  3. Petersburg James A. Johnson PAPG → Juneau International PAJN

    Did you know Juneau is Alaska’s capital? I totally didn’t: had my money on Anchorage 😳 Never too old to learn something new!

    The RNAV approach here is quite interesting. It gets you close to the airport, but the final leg has to be flown visually, after a 15° right turn to line up with the runway.

  5. Port Hardy CYZT → Bella Bella (Campbell Island) CBBC

    A flight at dusk, which just barely ended in time in Bella Bella (I like this name!).

    The runway wasn’t lit, and in the worst case, I would have had to turn back to Port Hardy, but everything worked out fine.

  15. Boeing Field KBFI → Canadian Forces Base Comox CYQQ

    When ATC says “yes” to the scenic route… I’ve left the first part of the U.S. behind and am now tracking Canada’s coastline toward Alaska. The best part: ATC cleared me for a detour: flying right over Seattle’s skyscrapers and looping around Vancouver instead of the direct path to Comox.

  17. Seattle–Tacoma International KSEA → Boeing Field KBFI

    What do you do if the start and destination airports are just 5 nautical miles apart?

    Of course, you take a little detour over Mount Rainier and watch the sunrise from up there!

    But first, you’ve got to get up there …
