Every day my friend!
You sure about that? LOL, wait until fall.... This is the exact spot you're parked in, long before all the camps started when we were doing the front end layout and environmental work for the project. Was living on a boat that week.

These Fire Boss water bombers came from Lac Labiche, AB to fight a big fire near Chapleau, ON a couple of weeks ago. I was without hydro for 4 days because of that blaze.
The five blade mixmasters on the business end were impressive.

Hey Chicken Hawk.. Is that LCW? Looks like a lake I used to fly into a few (ok maybe more than a few) years ago.. Course back then LCW was yellow and had a round engine on it!!!

Spinner, that pic way back there on page 20 something looks like Porkies place in Pickle to me. Just in case nobody got around to guessing in the next 40 pages or so....

That's right Raven; today is the first anniversary of Craig's last "flight". I am asking for a minute of silence with those who knew him.
Miss you my friend!

Flying an aircraft and building a guitar are two things that are easy to do bad and difficult to do right

I do indeed! She had a round engine on her too!! I was mostly a NPQ guy for the summer I was there though! Perhaps we've met? I was there in 95 although I was in the area from 91.

This is a little different from most pics posted here but it's one of my best shots. Taken from the jump-seat of an A310 @ FL370 around Florida. Heading north.

Taken with one hand while bucketing on this little "town fire...." An airplane one for you, albeit a smokey distant one.
