Flying

Flying airplanes, mostly Cessnas

Landing Rwy 26, Astoria, Oregon (AST)

Here we fly a low approach to land on Runway 26 at Astoria International, Warrenton, Oregon. I flew in a crab until near the threshold with a small right crosswind. We are coming in over Youngs RIver Bay on the ILS approach (clearly we’re not flying the ILS). If you don’t want to fly in these conditions on the coast, you’re not going to be flying much!

Landing Polson, Montana (8S1)

Approach to landing on Runway 18 at Polson, Montana (8S1) in a Cessna 172 just after sunset. I love this approach as it is over Flathead Lake and just above a restaurant and bar with a deck located near the end of the runway. They must love the planes floating in right over their heads!
