I followed all their trips and loved the photography but now cannot find a trace of them on the net. I saw they sold the Maule…what a shame.

I came across your site today and really enjoyed looking through it. I especially liked this post because your rule #1 is the most important aside from being licensed to fly! I work in affiliation with a school that offers aviation courses and I think this site would be a great place to have a link set up. Let me know what you think. In the meantime, keep writing, I enjoy reading what you have to say.

Am impressed with your photos.
With my plane and your camera, and think we could manage some more.
I fly out of Chehalis and so a run up to Harvey, or whatever airport you live near is a short hop.
Email me if you want to do some flying when the #$%! rain stops for awhile.

I looked around in awe at the beauty I was experiencing today. I looked everywhere for the boat. I could see nothing but the barren expanse of ocean in all directions. I was now completely trapped between the clouds and the frigid, lonely sea. I was so low and far from shore that I was out of communications and navigation radio range. If I couldn\’t find the boat, the only way home was to dead reckon an easterly course, eventually finding land. Or, I could climb through the clouds high enough to gaze over them and fly towards some mountains in the distance.

The ocean was calm and glassy. I was all alone with my little plane, five-hundred feet in the air, a hundred miles from land, and nobody in sight. I rechecked my notes for today\’s location. My time and distance should put me right over the boat, and I was right on schedule.
