Thanks Brad. There is lots great stuff there, not to mention beautiful photos.

From their pages:

"So, where is downtown Moose Pass?"

"Anchorage is a small city located about 30 minutes outside of Alaska."

Good info, fun bush stories, and beautiful photos.

Thanks for posting this!

Nice video indeed.  As a point of interest with the wingtip camera shots notice the washout of the wingtip.  By this I mean how the wing is twisted to make the wing tip maintain a lower angle of attack.  This is how you aerodynamically prevent the wing tip from stalling even though the wing itself is stalled.  The wash out lets you still have aileron control in a stalled condition.  Lets you come home to mama instead of eating worms!
