Dispatch #12 - Stikene river mail run.
« on: February 11, 2012, 10:28:59 AM »
I delivered the mail on the dispatch 12 route, and snapped some pics along the way (93 of 'em).  Enjoy.  Let's go deliver some mail.

Yeah, there wasn't anybody there.  I didn't see any helis either, but it was a fun landing/takeoff.

Hi Jeff

i'm following the same dispatch as you :o

But as you might have seen in another thread I was having problems with the scenery, but hopefully that has been fixed.

Was just wondering what location in your picture has the fedex office, just so I know what to see when I get there

cheers

Me, too. I visited several times this place. But never did see an AI-Heli there..... :-[

Yeah, Clive, I'm glad you raised that question, since I had been wondering where on #012 that office is located.  As I recall, there's a building or two at Scud River, but I don't recall such detailed scenery.

Gots ta have it!  8)

The FedEx building is at Wrangell.  That's why I started at it, and finished at it. :D  If it's not in your scenery, I'll find out where I got it.

No Jeff you're correct. That's the FedEx office at PAWG. I like the one at PASI too.

Oh.  Yeah.  There.  PAWG.  Sure.  (Blush-blush!)

I knew I had the one at Wrangell, but for some trick of my eyes, your screenie looked a bit more . . . "primitive", so I thought it was located somewhere out in the boonies.

Thankee, Kind Sir, for clearing that one up for me.  And don't worry -- I'll be all right when I take my meds.

Sounds odd, perhaps, but since joining you fine folks at MM, I'd completely forgotten Sitka, so your commend was a good reminder, Brad.

Oh, and I found that FedEx Office just fine  8) .
