Continued our exploration of Oregon, this time in the south. Taking off in the Caravan from Medford, we came up to Calvert Peak (OR73) and Winkle Bar (OR74), some great add-ons which tempted me to stick around for a while and relax next to the river. Alas, the ocean was calling, so we headed up and out (at a fairly steep climb) from Winkle then over to Brookings for a few days of rest and relaxation.
First flight in the Black Square Caravan and so far loving it as a bush plane. The field of view is wonderful and she handles like a champ both in the ground and in the air. Doesn’t stop quite as fast as some of my other bush planes, but I’m still getting the hang of her systems, so I suspect that will improve with time. I think I’ll be taking this one out quite often when I go on bush trips!
