One more short flight.


Recommended Posts

A quiche from KSBA to the Channel Isands...and couple dirt strip destinations for a couple cargo hauls.

I'm happy the storms are abated and back flying in California again.

 

Out of KSBA in one of the C360's

After a fly over to assess my options...on approach to SZN2-Santa Cruz East.

It's not a completely boxed in canyon, so not as confined as it looks and go-round potential so long as I keep wits and speed.

Full Beta Reverse and brakes on the roll up the slope...Ok landing.

It was a bit bumpy turning around. Our customer's truck is standing by to watch us get out of there after completing his small but heavy tool delivery.

Another plane spotter sees us out of there without issues...great rugged Short bird.

Went up higher than necessary to get an overview of the island, I'm just heading up to the north end of this same rock for the last delivery.

Approach.

And we are rolling to a stop to deliver some new wings for this glider crew here...light but bulky, easily tucked into the versatile C360 alongside the previous tools. Thank You Cargo Straps!

Thanks for looking.

Matt.

nice one Matt, I think I wouldve missed that last strip with my eyes....looking warmer there....

 

:whis: That's why I did the fly over...I didn't spot it till right over it. :)

 

Thanks for comments all. Yeah, still not tired of these Shorts, they are Brilliant Airhaulers.
