Another IFR trip to Navman's Retreat
« on: January 06, 2013, 03:15:42 PM »
Setting the time for a few months previous, I thought I'd take a short IFR hop in the King Air to Navman's Retreat again, using RW weather from this morning.

Here is after engine start at CZST Stewart;



Back taxiing down the runway.







Fortunately, VMC conditions prevailed for my departure.



Descending into Bradfield Canal;



Completing the procedure turn.



Coming up on the Final Approach point.



A little rain but good vis below the overcast. ASOS says to expect a strong right crosswind on arrival.



The landing wasn't pretty but with only 1850 feet available, one needs to plant this beast down as soon as possible.



Not a very large ramp area but I'm told the beers are cold and plentiful here. ;)
