Rich has been flying his tanker all summer fighting fires and is now done with work for the season. I made a quick trip to Juneau last week for a quick heli trip and have not really been flying a ton myself. Reservoirs are lowering the water levels by the day and landings are everywhere. If only we had some snow to put the skis on. \u00a0Today was fun but we summarized it as cold and cloudy with some winds to make it almost miserable. We ended up only landing at 4 different spots and look to get some more as the low pressure passes overhead to make for good flying conditions toward weeks end. Here are a couple photos from today and my Juneau trip.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 33%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-704 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='http:\/\/www.bigtirepilot.com\/?attachment_id=705'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bigtirepilot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/12\/IMG_3725-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='http:\/\/www.bigtirepilot.com\/?attachment_id=706'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bigtirepilot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/12\/IMG_3729-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='http:\/\/www.bigtirepilot.com\/?attachment_id=707'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bigtirepilot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/12\/IMG_3731-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='http:\/\/www.bigtirepilot.com\/?attachment_id=708'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bigtirepilot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/12\/IMG_3733-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='http:\/\/www.bigtirepilot.com\/?attachment_id=709'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bigtirepilot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/12\/IMG_3743-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='http:\/\/www.bigtirepilot.com\/?attachment_id=710'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bigtirepilot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/12\/PNH_2009_402-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='http:\/\/www.bigtirepilot.com\/?attachment_id=711'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bigtirepilot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/12\/IMG_3698-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='http:\/\/www.bigtirepilot.com\/?attachment_id=712'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bigtirepilot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/12\/IMG_3706-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='http:\/\/www.bigtirepilot.com\/?attachment_id=713'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bigtirepilot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/12\/IMG_3711-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='http:\/\/www.bigtirepilot.com\/?attachment_id=714'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bigtirepilot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/12\/IMG_3712-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='http:\/\/www.bigtirepilot.com\/?attachment_id=715'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bigtirepilot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/12\/IMG_3713-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl>\n\t\t\t<br style='clear: both' \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Both Splashpilot and Lowrider arrived this morning looking to go fly.
